Black and white photo taken of a group of the Mummers, a group of radio actors and actresses, known for their horror series the Hermit's Cave, dramatically posed in the WJR studio. They are identified on a piece of note paper pasted to the verso with a "Public Address Systems, 340 East Grand Boulevard" header from left to right as Irving Butterfield, Prudence Butterfield, Donelda Currie, Charles Penman, and Bruce Myers. The Butterfields stand behind Currie, who sits gazing off toward the camera, as Myers, also seated, points at her accusingly, and Penman looks on holding the script. A WJR light stands next to a curtain hung in the background.
