1944 Silver Plaque Commemorating Jose Garcia & Sus Zorros Grises
About the Item
A fine antique commemorative plaque.
With a silver (or silvered bronze) plaque set on a black glass base.
The plaque dedicated with the inscription: "Jose Garcia y sus Zorros Grises a A.G.A.D.U. / Como Recuerdo de Suactuacion en Montevideo 1944"
The inscription roughly translates as: "To Jose Garcia and the Zorros Grises (Gray Foxes) from A.G.A.D.U. / In a Memory of their performance in Montevideo in 1944".
A.G.A.D.U. is an acronym for The General Association of Authors of Uruguay, a non-profit organization founded in 1929 devoted to the preservation & dissemination of the works (especially Uruguayan) authors & artists of all kinds.
Jose Garcia y sus Zorros Grises was a orchestra/ensemble group led by Jose Garcia that played primarily tango music and achieved widespread popularity throughout various South American countries. The group was formed around 1930 and continued to perform until its dissolution in 1950.
Simply a wonderful piece of musical history!
