The Careless Navigator Restaurant Menu - Treasure Island, Florida

Bagels and Yox

This is a flier for the number one entertainment for the American-Jewish people, "Bagels and Yox." This particular run was to open on Sunday, May 11, 1952 at the Blackstone Theatre in Chicago, Illinois.

I can't find too much information on this particular run of the show. I did find a 1951 review of the play in the New York Times theater section. The Blackstone Theatre is still around but is now known as the Merle Reskin Theatre.

184 Days of the 1962 Seattle World's Fair - Day 70: "Peep" Backstage, U.S.A. (NSFW)

Today we have a souvenir booklet from "Peep" Backstage U.S.A. during the Fair. This booklet features all of the shows that occurred during the Fair along with names of risqué (for 1962) photos of the performers. Peep was a Jack D. Matlack presentation. Matlack died in 1990 and was a bit of a character. You can see his obituary here.

You can see the entire (NSFW due to some very "gentle" 1962 nudity) booklet after the jump.

Snake River Valley Schoolmasters In Concert - February 18, 1949 - Payette, Idaho

This a leaflet/program for the Snake River Valley Schoolmasters Present Association Band and Choral Groups in Concert in the Payette High School Auditorium in Payette, Idaho on February 18, 1949. I don't much about this specific concert. I just found the program and noticed that it was the 62nd anniversary and here we are.

The Life and Times of Marjorie Casper: The Hollywood Paladium

Here we have a souvenir photo of Marjorie and some unidentified friends at the Hollywood Paladium in Hollywood, California. My guess is that this photo was taken sometime in 1943. Marjorie is the woman on the far left.

Nabisco Product Cards

I am not really sure what I have here and when they are from. They appear to be flash cards or something of the sort showing you Nabsico products and their packaging. There are two different types of cards, some with white backgrounds and some with blue backgrounds. It seems like the cards are from two different time frames but I am really not sure. I cannot find any information on them. I just like the simplicity and randomness of these cards.

Note: The Vanilla Wafer card is going to be used for an episode of Cook's Country on PBS (airing sometime in the Fall) in a section on the history of pudding and pudding recipes.

See the rest of the cards after the cut.
