Image description

The subject relates to the popular eponymous Harlem nightclub owned by Leroy Wilkins, whose brother, Barron Wilkins, owned the Barron Wilkins' Exclusive Club, a mainstay of Harlem Renaissance nightlife. Whereas Barron Wilkins' Exclusive Club catered to a selected white audience and mostly forebade black clientele, Leroy's had a purely African American audience. In 1925, Count Basie had his first appearance at Leroy's, where he played with the likes of Fats Waller and other jazz icons before gaining national recognition.
