Everything but "some old drum corps photos"


Recommended Posts

Hi Lindap and thanks for your efforts in this thread.

Is that cover picture the Anaheim Kingsmen where they're all the same height? Sure looks like them.

I believe you are correct. The program cover is entrancing. Inside it cites the entrants, Marion Cadets, Toronto Optimists, The Vanguard, Seneca Princemen, Spectacle City Mariners.

A page from a 1973 Bowling Green Ohio contest program. What I read on this page seems like DCP today. Some things change and some things stay the same, imo ; )

Cool pic! Anyone know what the person in row three is playing? It looks to be some sort of massive single tenor. Im not sure though as im using a Nook, so it's hard to tell.
