Description: This is a rare August 2nd, 1972 Penn Central Railway Timetable for the Highland and St. Martins to Philadelphia line advertising the Original Broadway production of the JIM JACOBS and WARREN CASEY musical "GREASE" at New York's Broadhurst Theatre on the front panel. The production opened February 14th, 1972 at the Eden Theatre, moved on June 7th, 1972 to the Broadhurst Theatre and finally settled into the Royale Theatre on November 21st, 1972 for over seven years, running for 3388 performances .....

Side Note: When Grease closed in 1980, the 3,388 performance run was the longest in Broadway history, although it was surpassed by A Chorus Line a few years later. It went on to become a West End hit, a hugely successful film, and was followed by two successful Broadway revivals in 1994 and 2007. (Wikipedia) .....
