The program front. A program from the second season of the Maxinuckee Playhouse, which opened in 1950 (dating this program presumably from 1951) and closed in 1961, according to Harvey
Firari's excellent article about the Playhouse. The production that year was Mary Chase's "Harvey." Of further interest is the interior and back side of the program which include advertising from a few of the prominent businesses of Culver at the time. This and the other Playhouse program artifacts were provided by the Marshall County Historical Museum.

Program Front
Program Front
The front of a program from the Maxinkuckee Playhouse, date unknown. This design is typical of several years' worth of the layhouse's programs, and is interesting to actually see physically. The front of the program (above, left) consists of two flaps that "open" into the inside. The programs themselves may be seen "in person" at the Marshall County Historical Museum in Plymouth, IN.
