Down at the Long Branch Saloon
“Down at the Long Branch Saloon” will be published in 2010 as a pictorial history of the Long Branch Variety Show. For over 50 years, the Long Branch Variety Show has been delighting audiences every summer. What started in 1958 as weekend entertainment over the 4th of July has turned into a 7-night a week production at Boot Hill Museum. The book will feature pictures of the show throughout the years plus the story of how it all began under the direction of Lewis & Rosemary Mock. Former Miss Kittys & Docs have been contacted to share their part of the story as well as former Can-Can dancers, variety acts, and gunfighters. If you’d like to be a part of this project – email book organizers at HYPERLINK “mailto:longbranchhistory@yahoo.com” longbranchhistory@yahoo.com .

As an alumni of the show (Summer 1986) I would LOVE to have a copy of the book! It was a wonderful summer and I have great memories of the days that summer. Dean Freeman, Don Pfister (Ding & Dong), Robi, Michele, Sara, Cyd and the list goes on and on…
Let me know when to order!!!
As a spectator at the Long Branch Saloon this past July, 2009, I really enjoyed the show! It was fantastic and I would love a copy of the book. I didn’t have a chance to get an autograph from all those very talented men and women who participated in the show! I could put a name to a face of the current ones and see the past participants also. Please let me know when to order!
