Poe Alone Brochure

A promotional brochure for a stage production called "Poe Alone" starring actor Thomas Maddox Vize which was designed by Rumph in 1967. I believe that it is the last copy in existence and is in mint condition. It was done in typical Rumph Gothic style and is a true masterpiece of art.

I spent many entertaining days with Jim and his wife back in the 60's in their Santa Monica studio. I was devastated to learn that both he and Darryl Ann are gone. When I took over as producer of "Poe Alone," I had Jim design the brochure. I can honestly say that many venues booked the show sight-unseen, just on the basis of Jim's brochure.
