Summary

Description Front of a postcard sent out by the Stork Club to notify patrons about the present and coming floor shows at the club. After the club moved to East 53rd Street in 1934 and factions like the Society and Celebrity crowds became fixtures at the club, live entertaiment was offered. When it became evident that people were interested in seeing and being seen by others, the floor show was abandoned in favor of expensive gifts to keep the regulars returning.

  • Because I couldn't view the back of the card, a search for original registrations was done in artwork for the years 1931 through 1934. There were no listings for "Stork Club". There's no evidence of original copyright on the postcard.
