Summary

Description
English: Political cartoon by Clifford Berryman, published in the Washington Evening Star on 19 February 1922.

U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) ARC Identifier 6011714 / Local Identifier X-045

"Jazz had come to Washington, DC, and cartoonist Clifford Berryman salutes this new musical form. Everyone is shaking to the dynamic sound of jazz as they walk or ride across the Calvert Street bridge - or is it just bad vibrations from the electrified streetcar system on the bridge?" -- NARA General Notes

The Calvert Street bridge was built across the Rock Creek gorge in 1891 by the Rock Creek Railway; it was the first streetcar link from downtown Washington, D.C., out Connecticut Avenue. It was replaced in 1935 by a new Calvert Street Bridge, later renamed the Duke Ellington Bridge.

Part of the NARA Berryman Political Cartoon Collection, compiled 1896 - 1949
