EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of glamour and allure from the 1930s as it showcases a showgirl from Billy Rose's "Let's Play Fair" production at Casa Manana in New York City during 1939. The image was taken on the bustling 7th Avenue at 50th Street, a location that was synonymous with the vibrant energy of the jazz age. The showgirl, dressed in an extravagant and intricately bejeweled costume, exudes confidence and charm. Her youthful and radiant appearance, likely in her thirties, adds to the youthful spirit of the era. The "Let's Play Fair" production was a popular cabaret show that attracted large crowds, offering a much-needed escape from the harsh realities of the Great Depression. Billy Rose, a renowned impresario, was known for his spectacular and extravagant productions, and "Let's Play Fair" was no exception. The show featured a cast of beautiful and talented showgirls, who entertained audiences with their dazzling performances and captivating stage presence. This photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of the 1930s cabaret scene and the iconic status of Billy Rose's productions. It offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where glamour, music, and dance came together to create an unforgettable experience. The image is a reminder of the power of art and entertainment to transport us to another time and place, and to leave us feeling enchanted and inspired.
