About this piece
This Week in Pittsburgh, "Pittsburgh's Civic Weekly" and Official Town Guide, Friday, November 25, 1955, Vol. 59, No. 3. The cover has stylized harlequin-and-mandolin art signed Kermes and a photo of Frank Blandi, owner and host of the Park Schenley Restaurant. About 5.6 x 8.7 inches. Light toning and wear.
Inside are nightlife and dining ads such as Frankie's Band Box on Grant Street ("3 doors from the Carlton House," with Don McGovern at the Hammond organ), news of Pitt adding a 173-acre suburban campus at the former Hubbard Reservation, and Dr. Edwin Peterson's "The Quill" creative-writing series on WQED.
A great snapshot of mid-century downtown Pittsburgh dining, entertainment and hotels.
