  • Ninety-one years ago: There is almost no end to the number of blackface acts being presented.... Hobo or Tramp Acts. These consist entirely of makeup, wardrobe and patter.... The text is engrossiing, and the illustrations are great, too. Thanks, kobayashi!
  • What a great post! And I'll have something to fall back on if the economy stays in the terlet.
  • Need some music for that blackface act? I've got plenty.
  • goetter, you're full o' suprises.
  • There goes any hope of productivity for today.
  • I just love the illustration of the trick pianist so much (page 9). Soooooo much. I'm thinking a career change is in order, actually.
  • This is wonderful! Thanks .kobayashi. Time to pad the resume.
