Photograph caption dated November 22, 1956 reads "Peter sketches his pet rooster. Sitting on floor, amidst scattered samples of his drawings, Peter Gebhardt, 12, makes pencil sketch of one of his pet roosters. Peter, who has been drawing since he was old enough to hold a crayon, had one of his works entered in adult show at Scripps College." The article partially reads "With a painter-sculptor-instructor for a father, a sculptor for a mother, an older brother who dabbles in ceramics and a younger sister who not only draws but writes, Peter Gebhardt, 12, of Burbank, was bound to have a little talent."; See images #00146587 through #00146589 for all photos in this series.
