70s Sinatra Showguide
This gorgeous Caesars Palace show guide was donated by Linda Keele of Toronto, Ontario.
The red velvet cover features a simple word – "Sinatra" – and the Caesars Palace logo from the era. Inside are brief biographies of Frank Sinatra and some of the other artists scheduled to appear in the summer of the year this was published, including Ella Fitzgerald and Count Basie.
Sinatra’s biography reads in part, "The public knows him best as the singing star who almost alone raised popular music to new critical respectability, couple with the flamboyant personality of one of the most charismatic stars in the world."
Ella Fitzgerald’s brief bio has a quote from one of the greatest jazz vocalists of the 20th Century: "The reason I continue to sing… I love people and I love to be loved by people. When you get that two-way love going, that’s something."
The back page features upcoming shows by Phyllis McGuire, Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme, and Harry Belafonte.
Many thanks to Linda for donating this piece.
