RICHARD RODGERS AND OSCAR HAMMERSTEINT
American composer who wrote many popular songs and scores, including "Oklahoma!", "Showboat", and "South Pacific." A fine and desirable association piece, vintage I.S.P. 8" x 10" sepia, a great informal pose showing the two composers seated theatre rows, looking bemusedly ahead of them. Inscribed in Rodger's hand in the lower blank mount of the photo to RUDOLF TAUBERT, the printer of scores for the enormously important musical publishers G. Schirmer, Inc., who published Rodgers and Hammerstein's most famous scores: "To Rudy Taubert with best regards Richard Rodgers", with Hammerstein signing at right "Oscar Hammerstein". Bottom left corner of mat chipped, else in very good condition, ideal for display.
