              <text>These are original 8x10 prints of a woman + a man playing an RCA theremin. The thereminist in these photographs (his name is Charles D. Stein) seem to use two different wooden RCA theremin bases or two different theremins entirely. &#13;
&#13;
Very small handwritten notes mention "806 PP36". Notice the RCA Loudspeaker 106 featured. The theremin performer shown here seems to have a nice hat. Cowboy hats are cool!&#13;
