Overview
Fans of the theatre will be thrilled to discover the original posters for
hundreds of Broadway’s biggest and most beloved hits, including My Fair Lady, The Fantasticks, Hello, Dolly!, Fiddler on the Roof, Death of a Salesman, A Raisin in the Sun, and A Streetcar Named Desire—plus
rare and striking designs that
tried in vain to sell some of the era’s epic flops. In addition to being
an important resource, this book is a fun read thanks to the inclusion
of
previously untold stories
of the men and women
behind the shows and the art. Featuring
• a treasure trove of masterpieces by the theatreʼs best illustrators, designers, photographers, and graphic artists, including Charles Addams, Peter Arno, Saul Bass, Eileen Darby, Whitney Darrow Jr., Hap Hadley, Al Hirschfeld, and David Klein;
• never-before-seen artist progressions from conception to completion, as well as alternate and rejected designs;
• facts and legends about the productions;
• a look at how the posters were used around the city;
• rare images—many one of a kind—sourced from private collections, archives, and libraries nationwide; and
• an index of artists and shows.
The deepest dive ever into this colorful corner of American show business, this opus boasts an appeal that goes far beyond just poster fans. Broadway Poster Art: 1945–1969 is a must-have for anyone with a love of the performing arts, graphic design, entertainment history, and Broadway’s golden age.
