This August, 1940 photo documents the performance of “The Princess and the Robber Chief” in Pultneyville, which starred a twelve-year old John Ashbery as the king and his childhood friends Carol Rupert and Mary Wellington. This photograph was a gift “from Carol to John” on his 80th birthday (July 28, 2007).
