Description
Earl Carroll's theater-restaurant is famed not only for its "most beautiful girls in the world" but, also, for its unique construction. During the show, leggy ladies of the line paraded onto a huge circular, revolving stage. This photo shows Earl Carroll and some of his aides and chorus girls examining the moving stage in 1938.
