A glass advertising Hazel Scott performances at Le Zèbre a Carreaux. The cylindrical highball class is clear. It has a slightly wider rim that tapers inwards towards the base. Painted on one side is a black rectangular field with hand painted white and light blue text that reads [LE / ZÈBRE A CARREAUX / HAZEL / SCOTT / FELIX / MARTEN / SANDRA / PHILIPPE / PARMENTIER / AVRIL 1963]. Framing the club’s name at the top of the rectangle are two, hand painted purple lines that resemble draped curtains painted on either side of the word [LE]. The rest of the glass is plain clear glass.
