Description
Mighty Blues Kings, a jump Chicago blues band comprised of seven white men, stand and look surprised or delighted as they hold their instruments. The drummer, playing a snare and smiling at the camera, sits in the center of the other six band members. The kick drum head has the initials, "MBK." The first instrument to the left is a tenor saxophone, then a double bass, then a singer grasping a microphone stand, next an alto saxophone, the next band member's instrument is not visible, and finally on the right the band member plays an electric blues guitar.
