{"value"=>"<p>This series houses eight scrapbooks created by Solov early in his career. Three of the scrapbooks, dating from 1936-1938, detail Solov's performances as a teenager. Kept almost like a diary, they include notes on what dances were done, signed photographs from other performers he encountered, cards, programs, souvenir buttons and radio scripts from various venues. Solov often made note of any prize money won or tips received for his performances.</p> <p>Three scrapbooks document his time with the military in a performance capacity. Scrapbooks for the <span class=\"title\">Air Force Caperers</span>, <span class=\"title\">The AIR WAC Revue</span>, and one general scrapbook contain photographs, programs, and newspaper clippings. Since the revues toured the United States, there are reviews from nearly every city stop as well as candid photographs of the cast as they toured the country. These scrapbooks date from 1943 to 1945.</p> <p>There are also two scrapbooks of clippings, dated 1951-1952 and 1954-1955, detailing Solov's choreographic work as well as his work as a dance master with the Metropolitan Opera.</p>"}
