You gotta shake your hands,
All around and around the sky.
And then you buzz around the floor,
You can do it if you really try.
All the girls and guys,
Are gettin’ wise,
There’re gonna fly.

–Chubby Checker, Do The Fly 1962

Looks like a waste of a tintype, but I suspect that she was a popular comedienne.  That early wet photographic process required that she sit still in that pose for several minutes. Apparently the tintype sold on Ebay last year for $200, and now it’s offered on an Overnight Open Thread for free.
