Cultural appropriation?

Cultural appropriation or just a bad hair day ?? You decide.
Mr. Sherman, who seems to be demonstrating quite well a likely origin of the phrase "light in the loafers" - one which inhabits the shadowy world between endearing and insulting - was credited in his obit with three productions: "Nellie Bly", "Make Mine Manhattan" and "Catch a Star". I don't believe this still corresponds to any of those, and insofar as he seems to have been associated more with the Roxy than Radio City, an explanation of this pic will have to await someone with much better knowledge of either the theatre or Radio City itself...a population that is, I believe, quite vast.
