How Do I
The Bakaleinikoff TableclothThis tablecloth, framed and hanging in the Department's front room, was autographed by friends and associates of Vladimir and Julia Bakaleinikoff. Each signature was then embroidered by Julia. It was presented to the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh by Charles Rosenbloom. Through our "Performers in Pittsburgh" file, we have determined that the majority of signers performed with the Pittsburgh Symphony between 1946 and 1953. |
