Description

Unique gift for an opera lover. This is one of my favorite trip souvenirs.
It contains the handsomely matted band that was featured on a program at the jewel of an opera house called Teatro Guiseppe Verdi.
The names of many of Verdi’s Operas ( Nabucco, Otello, Falstaff)
are printed in tiny gold letters on the lower edge of the band.
We visited the town and the opera house in the early 1980’s. The yellow tag is a sticker of the local framer.
Unfortunately, I am downsizing so
there is just not enough room for everything.
Measurements: 22 ½” wide and 10 ½’ High Very good used condition.More information about the opera house available on the web.
