Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Ebba Rankin, Mrs. Lawrence Grant, and Eleanor M. Floercky sit at a square table covered in a checked tablecloth. Four place settings are set. Rankin and Grant hold cups of coffee or tea, while Floercky holds a cigarette in her left hand. All three women wear hats and Grant wears a fur stole. A window and a brick wall are behind them. On January 26, 1936, the Writers' Club held a supper and variety show where the three women were on the hostess committee, among others.
