Description
Photograph of an outdoor play showing a band and performers wearing bolero dress, Claremont, ca.1930. The band can be seen at center, while the band members are all dressed in the same clothing of pants, long-sleeved jackets, and caps. Beyond the band, a few dozen people wearing bolero dress can be seen. Most of the men and women are visible dancing together, while at least three horsemen can be seen towards the left. Trees can be seen in the background, while the tops of heads of what appear to be audience members are visible in the extreme foreground.
