A special Performing Arts volume from the Library of Congress with a fascinating and important collection of articles, with particular emphasis on silent film and music in film.

Glossy paper. 167 pp. Illustrated with something like 250 illustrations, about 5 of them in color, from the collection of the Library of Congress: historical photos, sketches, posters, original script pages, original screenplay pages, original score excerpts, costume design sketches, production photos, publicity photos, stills from films, newspaper clippings...
At the end of most articles, bibliographic information appears, either styled as "Research Aids" or "For Further Reading."
