Irving Berlin‘s song “Easter Parade” talks about finding yourself in the rotogravure.
What?
“The photographers will snap us
And you’ll find that you’re
In the rotogravure.”
Rotogravure. Merry-go-round? Snooty name for restroom?
Rotogravure \ˌrō-tə-grə-ˈvyur\
Buy props used in MaryJane’s books and magazine!
5% of profits will benefit www.firstbook.org, a non-profit that provides new books to children from low-income families throughout the U.S. and Canada.
Here’s how:
MaryJane will post a photo and a description of a prop and its cost along with a few details as to its condition here: https://shop.maryjanesfarm.org/MaryJanesCurations. It’s a playful way to be the new owner of a little bit of farm herstory.
Ha! I always thought that line was “And you’ll find that you’re on the road to grandeur.” 🙂
I grew up watching Lawrence Welk on TV too! My Mother was a soloist in a lot of productions around Spokane and directed choir at our church. She and my Father used to dance around the house with Lawrence Welk and sing along with all the songs. I loved it when they sang the Easter Parade especially when I came out of the bathroom dressed in my Easter pretties.
