Original Kodak Safety Film contact sheet and negatives showing jazz legend Lionel Hampton performing live on stage, circa 1950s. Multiple frames capture Hampton playing drums, interacting with other band members, and performing under stage lights. Each frame is numbered and some are marked in grease pencil for print selection. Includes one 8x10 contact sheet and several strips of original negatives from the same session. Excellent documentation of Hampton’s showmanship and stage energy during the height of his career. Light handling wear and minor darkroom staining to the contact sheet. Negatives are clean and well-preserved. Very good vintage condition overall.
