Print of Cab Calloway and dancers performing

A black and white photograph of Cab Calloway performing with dancers around him. Calloway is pictured in the center of the image, pictured from the waist up at an angle from the bottom left corner. He wears a checked tuxedo with tail coat and white bowtie. His mouth is open as if singing and he is glancing down past his proper right shoulder. In the foreground, the hands, neck, chin, and torso of a dancer in a partial backbend is visible. Behind her, in the background, another dancer is visible, but out of focus. She wears a striped costume with white bodice and stands with one arm raised above her head, bending back slightly from the waist. Behind Calloway, only the legs of another dancer are visible. She is atop an elevated platform, behind and facing away from Calloway, standing upon her proper left foot with her proper right bent at the knee and her dark colored high heeled shoe visible in the center of the image. There are no marks or inscriptions, front or back.
