1920réf. List3820Chicago Illinois: Schlink Studio 1920. Real photo postcard measuring approximately 3 ½ x 5 ½ inches. Studio portrait of an African American musician standing in overcoat hat gloves and cane beside a chair displaying a saxophone and clarinet. Divided postcard back. Light wear and soiling with small loss or surface disturbance at lower margin; very good. A real photo postcard portrait of an African American musician posed with saxophone and clarinet. The sitter is not identified but the portrait was clearly made to present him as a professional or semi-professional performer rather than as an informal amateur. The formal clothing cane and carefully arranged instruments give the image the character of a publicity or theatrical portrait. The combination of saxophone and clarinet is especially appropriate to early twentieth-century dance-band and jazz performance when reed players commonly doubled on both instruments. The photograph likely dates from the period in which Black musicians circulated through local orchestras theater bands dance halls vaudeville circuits and early jazz ensembles often leaving behind few named records apart from photographs like this. A strong real photo postcard portrait of an African American reed player with good visual presence and clear musical content. . Schlink Studio unknown

1910réf. List3897United States 1910. Nine real photo postcards most standard postcard size several postally used with divided backs. Images include families and groups gathered on porches and in yards with phonographs or gramophones lakeside and camp scenes with record players an interior scene showing a man posed beside a piano and phonograph and several portraits of men with tabletop and horn machines. Some wear silvering soiling and handling; generally very good. A group of real photo postcards documenting the domestic and social use of gramophones and phonographs in the early twentieth century. The cards date from the period in which recorded sound was moving from novelty to common household entertainment. Victor introduced the internal-horn Victrola in 1906 and by the following decade phonographs had become recognizable features of parlors porches camps and other informal leisure settings. The commercial growth of the industry was rapid: Victor's 1904 Red Seal recording of Enrico Caruso singing "Vesti la giubba" is generally described as the first million-selling record while less expensive records and machines helped bring recorded music into a broader range of American homes.1 The group shows the machines among families vacationers young men porch groups and domestic interiors centering the new technology in social gatherings during the period. 1 Marc Hogan "How Much Is Music Really Worth" Pitchfork April 16 2015 accessed July 21 2026 https://web.archive.org/web/20150501155808/https://pitchfork.com/features/articles/9628-how-much-is-music-really-worth/. . unknown
