Broadside poster. Illustrated by Gorey with the errant shoelaces draped over the title lettering and artfully and abstractly folded napkins punctuating the poster's relevant information. Another in the series of boldly illustrated posters advertising theatrical productions in the vicinity of Cape Cod. Brush of soiling to upper margin, else fine. Together with a printed shoelace apparently used for promotional purposes (which would enable one to yell out: "Found one!"). Given the odd nature of this extra piece, it is seldom encountered (a self-fulfilling prophecy?).
