> Tickets for Frank Sinatra's first solo performance
> at the Paramount Theatre in New York City in 1942
> sold for 35 cents each.
I was 5 years old when my Mom took me to the Paramount. I had no idea
who the guy was on stage, but she told me later that it was Frank
Sinatra. At that time, I think tickets were 50 cents :) The only thing I
remember about the day was asking her "When are the cartoons coming on?"
I think she probably wanted to tell me to shut up, LOL :))))

He appeared often at a movie theater in R.I. and my aunt and her
girlfriend always talked about how they waited for him after a show and
walked him down the block to his hotel. This must have been before he
needed all those bodyguards.
