Just a spectacular complete surviving Burlesque Follies Program form the 1926 - 1927 edition of The Folies Bergere in Paris. Profusely illustrated from photographs throughout - a few pages in color including two double page color spreads. The cover is fabulous with stylized Art Deco font gold gilt lettering and beek-a-poo inside page plate view of Josephine Baker. In fact the primary emphasis here is on the famous African American expatriate who delighted European audiences with her dances and overt sexuality. This was the first year Baker performed at The Folies Bergere and this program shows her in all of her pulchritude.

CONDITION: Fine condition complete and spectacular with but very light signs of age and reading. Please use the included images as a conditional guide.
