Exterior view of the Cotton Club nightclub (on Broadway, between 47th and 48th streets), where a uniformed doorman stands under the venue's illuminated marquee. The club, previously located in Harlem, featured various variety show performances, including music, comedy, and dance. It was initially racially segregated, allowing only white audiences to watch black performers, though by mid 1935, this policy had changed. (Photo by George Rinhart/Corbis via Getty Images)
