Title	Kings and Queens Social Club
Creator(s)	McCloud, Burnis, 1908-1990.
Summary	A group of African American men and women, members of the Kings and Queens Social Club, pretend to be drunk at a park in the mountains near Denver, Colorado. They drape their arms around each other and stand in awkward poses. Two of the people hold Budweiser beer cans in their hands, and one man dangles a cigarette from his mouth. The ground is littered with pots, pans, a coffee pot, and papers.
