In the background is the Works Progress Administration Bandshell formerly located in the Laura Morrison Park in Shelbyville, Indiana. The bandshell was host to many Pete Jarvis Cornstock™ concerts.

Construction began on August 20, 1934 at the cost of $1200, the bandshell served the city of Shelbyville for many years. The band shell was dedicated on July 1, 1935. There were about 1,500 people present. The 151st Infantry band, directed by George Dunn, played for the dedication. Sadly, the bandshell has been removed.
