Group around table at nightclub, Seattle, circa 1950
Order an ImageSeattle's Jackson Street jazz clubs flourished in the first half of the twentieth century, with their popularity peaking in the late 1930s through early 1950s. Seattle-born photographer Al Smith was a familiar figure in the clubs, often taking pictures of musicians and patrons, then returning the following week to sell prints.
Here, Al Smith photographs a group of club patrons sitting together around a table. Judging by the hats, horns and confetti, the group is likely celebrating together on New Year's Eve.
