1940's Photograph of the father of the Blues, W.C. Handy as he plays his trumpet at a concert in Milwaukee. A rare person to find any images of, this is a clear and bold example from a local photographer and offered here for the first time ever. Images of Handy are almost non-existant and this one is being offered here for the first time ever. Despite being adhered to some paper backing for publication, this is essentially in perfect condition.
