Frank Westphal and His Rainbo Orchestra, 1922, Photograph

All visitors to the inland metropolis--Chicago--never fail to visit the Rainbo Gardens where they have the opportunity of hearing one of the snappiest, clean cut, high grade dance orchestras of America, under the direction of Frank Westphal, a very clever pianist.

This organization is playing for the Columbia Phonograph Co. and making "hits". On April 14th this orchestra played a radio concert under the auspices of the Conn Ltd. and its renditions were distinctly heard by thousands of music devotees. Jack Richards the saxophonist of the orchestra rendered a solo with fine results. A new set of Artist De Lux gold-finished Conns were recently sent Mr. Westphal.
