photos, (12) unnumbered pages. Softcover in original wrapper. 21 cm. SIGNED in blue ink by Robeson on his portrait, SIGNED on title-page by Hegedus and Brown in green ink and by Hambourg in pencil with "1939" added in pencil at bottom, presumably by Hambourg. Program dated February 9th 1939 in ink on front cover which would place the performance at the Guildhall in Southampton, according to the list in this program of the 28 places in Great Britain and Ireland at which Robeson et al were scheduled to perform between January 11 and April 10. We assume that this program was used for all of those performances. Olga Hegedus's signature is somewhat indistinct but the other signatures are clear. The Robesons were living in England in 1939. They returned to the United States in October, 1939, a few weeks after Great Britain declared war on Germany.
