MPX5122238: The London Jive Club in Baker Street is probably the only club which has a dancing school held on weekday evenings to teach not only ballroom dancing, but Jive, Jitterbug, skiffle and any other new dance that comes along. Every Saturday and Sunday the pupils have their own dance with a resident Jazz band and Jive records brought along by pupils and played on a radio-gram. A pretty girl sits between three fellows who are either bored, puzzled, bewildered or judging by their expressions most intrigued as they sit and watch the dancers on the floor, November 1956 (b/w photo) / Bridgeman Images
