Description
This plaque has an advertisement for a play entitled "The Arizona Cowboy" to be performed at the Harmony Opera House. The year is unknown, but the date was to be Friday, April 29th. The Waukokee Windy Ridge Farmers Club were instrumental in performing the play. Those involved as the cast included Christ Evenrud, Alton Olson, Elvyn Cummings, Duffy Elton, Sydney Miner, Arnold Marzolf, Clarence Seelye, Myra Olson, Mrs. S. B. Miner, Mildred Olson and Amelia Evenrud. Pete's Five-Piece Orchestra was scheduled to provide the music for the show and the dance after the show. Tickets were advertised for both 35 and 50 cents for adults and 25 cents for children.

The original paper of the poster looks to have been glued to a piece of wood, which was then sanded in certain areas to give it a more rustic look. It is covered in epoxy to seal the wood and give it a shiny, clear appearance. There is a felt backing.
