Scope and content
Barbershop quartet. Their faces seem to say it all - perhaps an editorial expressed in song - as this barbershop quartet hold up posters of the Democratic and Republican symbols on November 4, 1971. Election day had just occurred. The singers are probably the Most Happy Fellows, a well-known local quartet who had recently won top regional honors in Vancouver, B.C. and who had often appeared at Steve's Gay 90s. They were practicing for the "Music Americana," the third annual barbershop music show by the Sweet Adelines of Tacoma. The show would run on November 5th and November 6th in the Mount Tahoma High School auditorium. Members of the Most Happy Fellows were: tenor Robert Hodge, baritone William Thurmon, bass Kenneth Hawkinson and lead Larry Hassler.
