My Dad recently found this photo of my grandfather with the Bob Richards /Westinghouse Orchestra. I love the "W.F." for Walter Fensch on his bass drum!
This is a photo of my grandfather playing drums with the Bob Richards and His Orchestra, which also doubled as the Westinghouse Orchestra (Westinghouse logos are on the stands in front of the band members) . Photo is from the early 1930s, most likely 1932 or 1933.
This is a handbill used by my grandfather's band. My grandfather is pictured in the back row at the far left (to the left of the stand-up bass). The band members are (back row): Walter Fensch (drums), John Miller (bass), Al Heath (piano), Joe Mayer (sax), Art Schreiffler (sax), Dale Stevens (guitar). Front row: Sid Applegate (sax), Oscar Fensch (trumpet), Howard Wildman (trumpet) and James Rosenberry (trombone).
