All dressed up with nowhere to go: Sitting on a bench in front of The Playhouse pool hall in Jackson, Ohio, two young men talk things over. Dressed in dark suits with open-collar dress shirts - the man on the right sporting a stylish pair of sunglasses - they are observed through the window by another man inside the pool hall. Theodor Jung made the photograph in April 1936.
