Journey back to Victorian days gone by when families in their Sunday best traveled by trolley to picnic groves for band concerts on sun-dappled afternoons. Before the Beatles, Glenn Miller Band or Guns N Roses~ Before any of these modern day bands, there was a band that remained the most popular musical act in the world for over 30 years, and remains in our hearts today. John Phillip Sousa's band is immediately brought to mind in this ultra rare design for the longstitch needlepoint artist. Band Concert features a large gazebo pavillion with a concert band leader and his troops all dressed in smart uniforms~ the townspeople have all driven miles to come hear the brisk marches and happy waltzes played on this bright and sunny weekend day. Children frolic and couples walk hand in hand. This rare vintace circa 1982 design for the Longstitch Needlepoint artist by the Artisans of the Something Special Line for Candamar is sure to add a cheery note to your decor or that of someone special!
