1949 Photograph of the father of the Blues, W.C. Handy as he plays his trumpet. A rare person to find any images of, this is a clear and bold example from Wide World Photos with a stamp and a paper caption on the back. Some handling wear and creasing distract a bit from the image as well as some artistic enhancements, but it is a rare image and one of the most important musicians to find quality images of.
