Photograph caption dated March 23, 1963 reads "Arnold Frank, the cat on the right, plays nervous jazz on his skins (drums) as Cleopatra, the big cat on the left, watches coolly. Cleo, a 3-year-old, 350-pound cat, was let loose Friday afternoon at Frank's Drum City, 15255 Sherman Way, Van Nuys, to publicize Drum City's participation in a teen-age fair planned for Pickwick Park, Burbank, during Easter school vacation."
