Description
Photographic portrait of B.F. Porter, of Porter Ranch in the San Fernando Valley, California, [s.d.]. The broad-shouldered Mr. Porter is pictured here in bust at three-quarters profile. He is wearing what appears to be a dark wool suit jacket that buttons very nearly all the way to his collar. He also wears a bowtie and can be seen looking to the left. He sports a graying beard that extends all the way to his sideburns. His hair is both thinning and receding and it is combed to the side.
