Here's another interesting one. An old playbill from the Gilford Playhouse signed by John Raitt. For those who aren't familiar with John Raitt you may be familiar with his daughter Bonnie Raitt.
Autographed program by John Raitt when he preformed in the musical Carousel held at the Gilford Playhouse in New Hampshire in 1980.In good condition.

Thank you Mcdude,

I guess the apple didn't fall far from the tree, as in Bonnie.

I had the great pleasure of attending one of Bonnie Rait's perfomances at the Boston City Music Hall in the early 70s.

This should bring it all back; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z04r_tlWdRs

McDude - I remember riding past the playhouse and asking my mother & grandmother, "Who's John Raitt?" That was in the days before Bonnie was famous. They both knew, and when Bonnie came along, I recalled that her father had appeared at the NH playhouse.
