Holy crap! Is that Photoshopped? If not, what's the source?

It's an archive shot from a concert in Manhattan in 1931, to celebrate the completion of the Empire State Building. By all accounts it went very well, until half-way through a particularly heartfelt rendition of [i]If I Ruled The World[/i], when someone in the audience made a negative comment about the player's intonation. And, well, suffice to say it was like Levnet all over again.







(I did enhance the photo a little in Photoshop, and the above description may not be entirely accurate.)

J_D - total genius, I've incorporated it into the picture. And given him a name!

Buddy Craigg - that gives me an idea - I've turned it into myspace comment-fodder with a Hands Off tag-line for the publicity drive. Nice one.
