Description
This is an interesting image because the man on the right side of the photograph is at the kitchen sink doing the dishes and one man is drying a glass and the man in the foreground is pouring alcoholic drink. It appears to have been posed because of the way the other gentlemen are looking at the photographer. The folder information indicates this is a Junior Chamber of Commerce event which was held at Walt Hoffman's house, taken March 29, 1946. In researching the Pasadena City Directories for 1943, and 1947 Walter Hoffman is not listed as a resident of Pasadena.
