Looks like it had a swinging monkey motif.

There are several movie people in the photo. The first one I picked out was Burgess Meredith....and that famous character actor at far right (I can't think of his name).
I believe the short woman with the black hair near the column is perhaps......Colleen Moore?
And I think I see Walter Huston as well (two people to the right of 'Colleen Moore')

I would agree with these identifications, and with whoever said (I can't verify it from here) that the lady next to Burgess Meredith is Ethel Merman. The man to the left of Ethel is Victor Moore. The Man to Meredith's left is, I believe, Teddy Hart. I'm thinking that perhaps the lady next to Morley is Hedda Hopper.
My wife says the man to the possible Miss Hopper's right is Douglas Fairbanks Sr, and she further maintains that the couple sitting at the table with backs to the camera is Robert Taylor and Barbara Stanwyck.
