The newly discovered band with Kid Ory started a research and debate. One thing lead to another and I wrote my friend Daniel Vernhettes if he could put some of his thoughts into the matter. Dan provided an alternative photo, below. This photo was part of Bertrand Demeusy’s collection, which Dan bought after Demeusy’s death, about ten years ago.

Dan thinks the place could be the One Eleven, LA, a taxi dance hall… or the Plantation Café.


It is most probable that several collectors has a copy of this photo.

Bertrand had lot of contacts with for instance Theo Zwicki and Duncan Sheidt.


John McCusker seconds the suggestion that the year is 1923. I welcome further suggestions. The drummer man was a new aquintance for me.
