Description:
A: Envelope to hold negatives. Labeled: "3/9/54 Mace + Gipson".
B: Negative in horizontal view showing the interior of an unknown location with two men in matching tuxedos. The one on the right is shorter and plays a guitar, while the one on the left is taller and plays a ukelele. A large stringed bassed and microphone stand near the man on the left, and an upright piano with an attached microphone in front of the man on the left. Behind them in the background is a long curtain, possibly window drapery or a stage curtain. At left is a flagpole with indiscernable flag and far to the right is a wall of exposed wood slats.
C: Negative in horizontal view of the same interior with the same two men, this time playing the stringed bass and the piano, respectively.
D: Negative in horizontal view of the same interior with the same two men, again playing the guitar and ukelele, respectively.
E: Negative in horizontal view of the same interior and the same two men, again playing the stringed bass and upright piano, respectively. Both of the men's mouths are open, suggesting that they may be singing.
F: Negative in horizontal view of the same interior and the same two men, still playing the stringed bass and upright piano. The camera's position has changed and the frame is revealing more of the left, with the walls and ceiling decorated in exposed wood slats.
