seldom seen images of adler and sullivan's garrick theater auditorium as 1950's television studio

seldom seen 1950s photographic print (not by richard nickel) of adler and sullivan's garrick theater when it was converted from theater to tv studio.

there are additional images from this "series," so i will be sure to post them. the ornamental balcony plaster looks polychromed, but it's likely shadows.

additional photographic images (8 x 10 silver gelatin prints) documenting garrick theater's transition from movie house to television studio (housed in the auditorium). these seldom seen images, taken by everett h.lang, photographers, date to the early 1950's. note the control booth jammed under the balcony - never seen this. apparently several early tv programs were filmed there, with sets and scenery built around the stage. sullivan's plaster ornament had already been painted pink and charcoal by this time.
