Original Associated Press wire photo dated August 22, 1947, showing Margaret Truman rehearsing on the Hollywood Bowl stage with conductor Eugene Ormandy before her public concert debut. The president's daughter stands at a microphone while Ormandy directs the orchestra from the podium at right. The caption states that her debut was scheduled for the following night. Measures 6X8⅝" overall. Caption is printed directly on the photo. AP stamp on back. Tape remains on the corners, with yellowing and discoloration. Multiple spots of emulsion loss appear near Truman's shoes, beside the podium and over the lower right caption, obscuring some text. Also shows surface scuffs, scratches, vertical dark marks and edge wear. From the archive of a Pittsburgh-area newspaper.
