Benjamin Franklin High School opened in 1943. A long-time principal there was pioneering educational theorist Leonard Covello, the city's first Italian-American principal. Frank Sinatra performed to quell racial tensions after a riot between African-American and Italian-American students on October 23, 1945. Future jazz saxophonist, Sonny Rollins, said that the concert changed his life.This is an original program of that concert performed by Frank Sinatra. It measures 8" x 10-1/2". It is separated at creases and a few imperfections along edges. Don't know of any that survived and are still in existence. GREAT Sinatra-ana!
