Mrs. Will Lee Austin (Effie) poses with her collie, King, while relaxing on her patio. Effie Austin sits in a wicker rocking chair at center. She faces slightly left and looks down as she pets King. King stands to the right of her and looks to camera. The brick-paved patio occupies the lower half of the image. In the background, the side of Effie's house stands at left and her side yard sits at right. In the far distance, a neighbor's house is visible through the foliage. This photograph is very similar to another one of Mrs. Will Lee Austin titled, "'King Performs for the New President," Los Angeles Times, 18 Jan. 1935: A7 Handwritten on negative: Mrs. Will Lee Austin Text from negative sleeve: Austin, Will Lee Mrs. [handwritten:] West Ebell Club [end handwritten]
