A 1917 souvenir program for the Hippodrome Theatre in New York, issued for the 1917-1918 season and held in the McManus-Young Collection at the Library of Congress. Its pages mix performer portraits, theatre floor plans and seating diagrams, a elephant photograph, and advertisements for New York music shops, dye works and a lingerie-and-gown firm. The portrait collages and advertisement layouts show early twentieth-century type ornament, oval photo framing and vintage fashion illustration that a designer could borrow for period layouts.
