Harmony Club of Chicago, 28th Annual Dinner Dance, March 11,1950 at the Stevens Hotel, Chicago. Photo by Burke & Dean Photo, Chicago. I did a little research and discovered that the Harmony Club of Chicago still exists and their mission is "to promote cooperation in the electrical trade." In particular, they are associated with IBEW Local 134.

This is a panoramic photo. I have been at similar events, and the way it works is: A photographer with a special camera comes in and offers to take a panoramic shot of the whole crowd, and he takes orders for copies afterwards.  He pans the camera across the crowd slowly and everyone tries to move as little as possible.  It takes several seconds to pan across the crowd. This is a scan of a 12x20 photo I bought in an antique store recently. View full size.
