Sally St. Claire stands in front of what looks like a metal locker. She is holding the top of her fur coat closed. She holds an unlit cigarette in her right hand. She is facing the camera, but looking somewhat off to the side.
This photo is very similar to another one in used in "Entertainer Faces Trial After Three Cars Crash," Los Angeles Times, 18 Oct 1935: A1.
The dancer's name appears as both Sally St. Claire and Sally St. Clair.
