Herrmann, Felix. Program to Felix Herrmann?s Last Public Performance. New York, 1938. Program for Barton?s Old Timers April Fools Day celebration at the Center Hotel, listing Herrmann among a dozen other performers. Stapled wrappers with embossed color vignette of a lady jester. [8]pp. Light soiling to covers. On Christmas the year preceding this event, Herrmann was injured in a car crash while visiting his brother in New York. He remained in the city and had recovered sufficiently to perform at this event, his last known public appearance. After this engagement, Herrmann returned to New Orleans, his health rapidly declining over the summer until his death on Nov. 10, 1938.
