N088----1930 Franklin PA original negatives - High School "Skidding" play

N088----1930 FRANKLIN PA ORIGINAL NEGATIVES - HIGH SCHOOL "SKIDDING" PLAY Two original negatives of the cast of Franklin High School (Franklin PA) posing during the production of a play called "Skidding" in 1930. Luckily, the old envelope the negatives were stored had a notation "Skidding" so I researched and found this play to be on Broadway in the late 20's. I was able to find a news article about this play in the "Oil City Derrick" of 1930 which even has a photo of the star "Robert Cole" a senior at Franklin High School. The play was performed on April 23, 24, 25, 1930 in the high school auditorium. By looking at the photo of Robert in the newspaper, I am 99% sure that is him standing at the bottom of the staircase. According to the article, Cole lived at 313 Liberty Street in Franklin PA. He was also the Class President and later attended Allegheny College in Meadville PA. Interesting to add that the return address on the envelope is pre-printed "The White House" and was sent to an employee at the newspaper "Franklin News Herald." My scanned image has been cropped from the original negative for display in this auction. Scanned images are NOT included. Original images are more in focus than I am able to present in this listing. The negatives are both approx 8 x 10 and in EX condition. ABSOLUTELY NO RETURNS ON ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPHS AND/OR NEGATIVES. * * * * * * *
