Photograph of a Woodlin electric refrigerator standing on the sidewalk in front of the H. H. West Company offices on Omar Avenue. The refrigerator stands on a sidewalk in the foreground at center. It is viewed straight-on from the front. Beneath it, the sidewalk stretches across the bottom third of the image. It stretches back on an upward angle from right to left. In the background, the facade of the H. H. West Company's office building stands across the image. A large window sits behind and to the right of the refrigerator. A portion of a sign sitting in the window reads, "H.H. WEST C[…]." Doors to the building stand open behind and to the left of the refrigerator. The address number "316" is etched into the glass lintel above the door. A sign sits above that and reads, "GUILD [...]."
