House Party

Description

Box 2 Folder 55: "Now at folder 53 which is a social gathering. This was taken out of Morrow’s files, Morrow the photographer. And I thought maybe there was somebody special in this picture. There’s a bunch of folks who are drinking a lot. They’re at a party, a house party. Somebody’s house. We have no idea who we’re looking at here. Nobody is particularly recognizable. This may have absolutely nothing to do with radio but it certainly has to do with having a good time back in 1952, ‘53. Why you would hire Morrow - or whoever’s party that was - to hire a professional photographer to take that picture unless it was one of the parties Morrow got invited to as a guy and happened to have his camera. Say “Hey fellows, smile.”"
