This black-and-white photograph, labeled “Figure 9,” displays three male staff members in formal uniforms typical of upscale hotels or theaters in the 1940s-1950s. The left and right figures wear matching double-breasted grey jackets with black lapels, white shirts, black bow ties, and light trousers-identifying them as Usher and Chief Usher-while the central figure wears a solid black tuxedo, denoting his role as Floor Manager. A geometric-patterned runner behind them adds visual structure, suggesting a staged studio or institutional documentation setting.
