Photograph caption dated February 7, 1961 reads "Mrs. Carl Dean of Northridge is an avid bowler. For team bowling at West Valley Bowl in Canoga Park she wears regulation uniforms, but on weekends when she bowls with her husband she chooses capri sets that flatter her petite size 8 figure. Here she wears a wool jersey set of mottled olive green and brown, flecked with yellow. The overblouse hangs lose for freedom of movement. The V inset on the neckline is grey background striped with green and brown."
