1896réf. 20057Herisau Switzerland: Edwin Jucker 1896. Matted. A kooky Gay Nineties band of cross-dressers a la Suisse! Four of the eight member band are in comical drag in this large sepia-toned photograph taken place during Carnival when outrageous costumes partying and carousing are as much a tradition in the Teutonic world as they are in the Latin countries. The photo itself as visible in the window surrounded by matting is 17 by 22 cm. The photo is taped to the back of the matting and when we look behind the photo is on a thick card measuring about 18 by 23.5 cm. We haven't examined the photo removed from the matting but we would assume that there is a narrow margin and virtually all of the photo is visible. The matting included the dimensions are 27.5 by 35 cm. The band seems to be a more or less typical Tyrolean ensemble with a violin a double bass a trumpet a flute a clarinet we assume -- part of the instrument is hidden so we aren't 100 percent certain a bass drum and a trombone. The center figure in the photo is a man dressed like Uncle Sam with a top hat a long goatee etc. We think this was probably intentional -- the consciousness of America and American culture has become a thing in a Europe with the explosive growth of the American economy and the lure of emigration beckoning to so many at the time. Three of the cross-dressers are zaftig and they are dressed in fittingly matronly attire while the fourth mostly hidden behind his drum seems as if he might be a little more svelte and his attire looks more like that of a suffragette say. The men dressed as men are also in comical costume as well at least three of them. The thinner man holding a trumpet is in clothes that might be Tyrolean or might be from an earlier decade -- we can't tell from the photo that blurs his suit into just a dark undifferentiated shape. We also think it is possible but unlikely that one or more of the band members dressed as men might be a cross-dressing woman but we have no confidence that this is the case and it is probably unknowable. A close look at the faces of the band members suggests to us also that a few of them are closely related and probably siblings. Again probably unknowable for all intents and purposes. The backdrop of the photo is a paneled wall with four travel posters of Swiss resorts -- Rigi Lake Maggiore Ragaz-Wartenstein. We would think this was a photo studio backdrop. Again just a guess. Written on the photo is "Wartsaal III - Classe". This suggests that the band was participating in a contest. Herisau is in the Appenzell Canton of Switzerland or the Northeast of the country close to St. Gallen. The photo is foxed not terribly. The matting is also foxed and stained otherwise with three chips two of which are at corners. Although the matting might seem a candidate for replacement though we wouldn't since it is clearly original to the photo with its black impressed caption above and issued with the photo itself as a souvenir of the band and the event.

1942réf. WALTER-FILM006912New York: Ivan Black New Color Studio 1942-1945. Set of three vintage original 8 x 10" 20 x 25 cm. black-and-white print still photos. Date stamps agency information and paper blurbs attached to two photos. Minor wear with one showing wrinkling at top and bottom blank white margins. Overall near fine. These portraits including one of Hazel Scott at the piano capture her effervescent sassy and charismatic personality which made her a top favorite for radio film and -- what one of the image's attached paper blurb indicates -- star of Café Society Uptown. She performed as the resident pianist/vocalist for five years by 1945 and earned a place at the top of show biz. Originally from Trinidad and Tobago Scott moved to the US and was a child prodigy. The classic and jazz musician became one of America's premier pianists of her time. One portrait announces her marriage to Congressman Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Two are agency portraits while the third shows her at the piano. Ivan Scott, New Color Studio books
