Print, Photographic
Sepia-toned photographic print depicting the Rialto, an eight piece band, posed wearing tuxedos with their instruments before a dark curtain. The drummer sits at his kit, two saxophone players stand right of him, the banjo player, pianist, and one of the violinists sit along the piano bench, the trumpet player lays across the top of the upright piano, and the other violinist stands on the right. "The Rialto Club" is painted onto the banjo's head. The bass drum's head is painted with "The Rialto Detroit" and bears a sticker, the legible portion of which reads, "May Time Frolic, given by the Yahmi Klub, Thursday evening May 4, 1922 at Brotherhood Temple ." "Percival G. Wright, Detroit, Mich." is stamped into the lower right corner of the photo.
