A Must See! is a must-have for any Broadway fan. It's a bonanza of a browse-book - overstuffed with rare, original theatrical artwork from the annals of Broadway. Curtain up! From tegendary musicals to classic dramas to ignominious failures, A Must See! proudly presents a visual feast of Broadway ballyhoo. For this compendium of graphic design excellence, theatre historian Steven Suskin combed through rare archives to collect together more than fifty years of plays and nearly two hundred compelling pieces of Broadway art. Great shows and great stars spill off the pages in artwork from top illustrators of the day, such as William Steig, Peter Arno, Alberto Vargas, and even Norman Rockwell. Throughout, Suskin peppers the text with insider information and juicy asides. Much of this material hasn't been seen since the shows closed eons ago, making A Must See! a must have.
