Description
Photographic portrait of former Los Angeles Mayor, Captain C.E. Thom, Glendale, California, August 2, 1893. The Captain, pictured in bust and profile, wears a dark overcoat which he has buttoned nearly to his collar. He sports a long, white, grisly beard and thinning hair, although his hairline has not receded. His eyes are light in color and stare widely to the right. Shadow obscures most of his cheek.
