Did you draw this picture from a program? If so, could you make a copy (scan) and send it to me? Particularly the page that lists the orchestra, if any. Mom says that Dad was in the orchestra for Petit’s Carmen in NY.
Mom had a program when she was a kid, but the mice in her parents’ attic got to her playbill collection.

Those mice!
I’m afraid I don’t have the program. This was a photo I found on the internet and cleaned up a bit. I loved the fact that it was such an honest photo, but I suspect the programme was typical of the time with only a few low-resolution grainy photos. Sorry I can’t help you.
PS What a lucky Dad!
