The Russian Theater Production Photographs Collection consists of sixty-five
photographs documenting performances of various plays in Moscow, Leningrad, and
other cities, circa 1920-1967. The photographs are oversize (most approximately
17 x

Association (A.E.T.A.) convention exhibit in the 1960s. A few of the photographs
