DescriptionA man, known as a Jigger, is dancing in the middle of the dancefloor with a beer in hand. There are five women on the far right sitting on a couch and watching the man dance. Two other men are seen on the left side of the photo, one is glancing at the dancing man and the other is holding a cigarette and his face is not visible. A large vanity is seen in the background directly behind the dancing man. There is floral wallpaper, wooden floorboards and a calendar on the wall.On View
