| The pictures below show more and larger views of all of the pages of the (2) 1960s New England Opera Company Programs in this lot. One program was for the May 3rd, 1964 opera ''LUCIA DI LAMMERMOOR'', and the other is for the May 22nd, 1966 opera ''RIGOLETTO''. Both of these were presented by ''The Hunnewell Fund'' and performed by the Boston, Massachusetts, New England Opera Company. They were also both performed at the Lowell, Massachusetts High School Auditorium. The ''RIGOLETTO'' program is signed by (7) of the performing actors, actresses, and a singer. The third picture below shows a closer view of all of the signatures assembled together. There are many people who were involved and named in the program, but those who gave their autographs, and their roles are as follows: GENESIO RIBOLDI - Rigoletto, The Duke's Jester, a Hunchback
TINA MORSE - Maddalena
ANDREW POULIMENOS - Count Monterone
DAVID LEIVI - Chorus
JERRY LOMONACO - The Duke of Mantua
