About This Item
New York: Weston Associates, 1960. Staplebound. Very good. Quarto, unpaginated [24pp.], illustrated. Very good in the publisher's stapled wraps, with a thin area of dust-soiling to the top of the front wrap, and some gentle creasing to the spine. Staples gently rusted, but sound. A fantastically designed concert program for the 1960 Newport Jazz Festival Concert Tour. Within are profiles of Anita O'Day, Thelonious Monk, George Shearing, and others. We could find very little material written about this concert tour, though Newport Jazz Festival producer George Wein is known to have organized some tours involving some of the major performers at the storied festivals during the late 1950s and early 1960s. The actual Newport festival in 1960 was one of the most memorable - there were several riots, mostly involving frustrated would-be concertgoers who were unable to secure tickets, and fought with police in the small, ritzy town of Newport. OCLC records no holdings of this program, nor any other from a Newport Jazz Festival Concert Tour. A rare and significant piece of jazz history.

About Cleveland Book Company
We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
