Eddie Thomas and Carl Scott

This is one of the few vintage images I've run across of African-American ukulele performers, and it's a video, to boot. A great reference for early strumming technique as well.

"Eddie Thomas and Carl Scott, obscure Richmond, Virginia musicians, play jug band style music that includes one of the more clever musical uses of a coffee pot. Songs played are 'Tomorrow' and 'My Ohio Home'"
