Frank Hardy Made My Photographs Two

I have had this image floating around for decades and finally got around scanning it a year or so back.  I am fairly sure that my father did not photograph this image … the only thing that I can think of is that someone brought it by to be copied or something and never returned to pick it up.  I know absolutely nothing about the ” Equality Cornet Band ” and I have never bothered to Google it either.  Maybe I should have done it before I posted it, but as usual, I did not bother.  However, on the other hand, that is not really my purpose or am I all that interested in the history of the ” Equality Cornet Band “, it just makes me smile when I look at the image.  So on that note, thanks for looking and please check back.  I have been scanning a large selection of negatives that I have had laying around, so I should have enough to keep me busy for the next few months.  Thanks for looking … Frank

PS – I Googled ” Equality Cornet Band ” and nothing popped up, so I have nothing more to add.  Maybe some of you jazz aficionados might recognize the group … I don’t know if they would be classified as jazz or marching band or big band or what.  I just cannot imagine that there is not anything  out there on the internet about the group.
