Looking at Hollywood with Ed Sullivan : Fred and his sister Adele, now Lady Cavendish, as they appeared way back in 1926

Brother and sister dance team Adele and Fred Astaire appear in a publicity photo for the 1920s musical comedy stage production, "Lady Be Good." The two stand back to back, holding hands, with their right legs raised. Adele appears in a “flapper”-style dress, skirt, and high heels. Fred wears a double-breasted suit and white shoes.
