- Description
- A black and white photograph of Cab Calloway looking out a city window. Calloway is pictured from the chest up, his shoulders leaning on a window frame, his proper right arm stretched out along the sill. His body is facing the camera, but his head is turned to his proper right, and he is looking down out of the window behind him. He is smiling and wears a grey colored jacket over a light colored shirt. Behind him, a cityscape is visible through the window though it is out of focus.
