Fascinating Photo<\/p>\n

1939, NBC presents “Mamba’s Daughters” staring Ethel Waters, seen here in the head scarf. The play is running on Broadway and is similar to the movie ‘The Help’, which is pretty interesting television fare for the time. The cameras are Iconoscopes and the cameramen are ‘interesting’. On the left, one is wearing a pith helmet, the one in the center has a handkerchief taped to the viewfinder and draped over his head and the guy on the right has some nice suspenders. With as many jackets as I see, the AC must be working given the immense banks of flood lights. Interestingly, not many shadows to be seen.<\/p>\n
