Item description from seller

Large bifolium on pale pink paper, 350 x 255 mm. with a little trivial wear. Although a programme for the events at the garden, the main attraction of this item are the extensive adverts for local businesses including a portrait of William A. Huntley, celebrated banjo player and teacher, who at the time was the only banjo player in the world to perform in "white face." He was one of the first to use the term classic banjo for his method of playing barefingered with two fingers and a thumb.
