A collage of humor bits from the December 13 1969 La Crosse Tribune. Jokes cover marriage mushrooms evolution sheep farming and a Keats lecture. The humor reflects late 1960s pop culture and office personae with brief punchlines and light irony.
In November 1969 two books memorialize the old Metropolitan Opera. John Briggs’s Requiem for a Yellow Brick Brewery 1883 1966 traces the house’s history with critical detail and anecdotes, while Judith Clancy’s Last Look at the Old Met presents twelve pen and ink drawings of the interiors from its last days.
A nostalgic look at the Met during its Lincoln Center opening and recollections of ballet memories. The piece notes a woman who drew during performances, a 1959 Bolshoi ticket promise, a small limited edition print offer, and a backstage mishap with a broken foot on the chandelier catwalk during a private tour. The article recalls the Yellow Brick Brewery era and a Last Look at the Old Met.
