content: A black-and-white photograph of a crowd of teenage boys and girls at a performance by LL Cool J at Benjamin Franklin High School, the fourth in a series of four photographs. In the center left a girl in the foreground looks to the right of frame, smiling with her mouth open and her hands held apart as though mid-clap. To the right of her is another girl, wearing glasses and looking straight at the camera with her mouth open. Behind them is a crowd of other students. On the back of the photograph an inscription written by Bill Adler identifies the subject and photographer.
