Description
Photograph of a dignitary in a flag-draped area, ca.1900. A stocky man tips his tall hat with his right hand as he faces the left. Two large American flags are draped on the side of a wall in front of the man to form a downward triangular shape. A crowd of people gather around the man while many umbrellas are visible sticking out of the crowd. Photoprint reads "Property of Ted Forsyth. 1401 Victoria Avenue, Los Angeles 6".
