Unbound. Condición: Fine. Single sheet measuring 4" x 9.5" printed on both sides. Original theatre programme for a 1938 Shubert Theatre production, featuring the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union Players. A fine copy. This theatre programme is unrecorded by *OCLC*, which does note holdings of theatre programmes for several other productions of 'Pins and Needles.' The International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union was once one of the largest labor unions in the United States, one of the first U.S. unions to have a primarily female membership, and a key player in the labor history of the 1920's and 1930's [from wikipedia]. Prints a detailed list of cast and crew for the production. *Pins and Needles* was originally written for the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union. It opened on November 27, 1937, and ran for four years. According to scholar John Kendrick, 'Pins and Needles' was ". the only hit ever produced by a labor union, and the only time when a group of unknown non-professionals brought a successful musical to Broadway" [see Kendrick, 'History of Musical Stage,' Part III].
