Very Rare, Radio City Music Hall 1940 Pictorial dedicated to "Wendell Wood with best Wishes" and signed by all 36 Rockettes dancers. Also on this page is an original photo of dancers, Mary Marchitte and Iris Harris, with the New York Skyline in the background. Opening the cover page there is another dedication that reads: :To Wendell Wood, Best Wishes from Rose Messing Oct.1939. There are 26 pages in very nice condition with the only writing on any pages are on page 4 and 17, which shows the Rockette line where Mary Marchitte and Iris Harris signed where they are in the dancers line (see Pic). Page 8 and 12, where Mary Marchitte signed where she was in the dancers line and on page. I don't know who Wendell Wood was but it looks to me that Mary and Iris both had a crush on him and didn't want to be forgotten. I don't know if any of these dancers went on to become famous actresses or what may have became of them, but this is a definite piece of history during the period of the 1939 New York World Fair. Here is a list of the signatures as best as I could determine:
