Description: Alfred H. Joy's 90th birthday party at the Hale Observatories Library, Pasadena. Joy is seen standing out of a chair to receive what appears to be a framed piece of art from an unidentified man. At the far left is a table holding Joy's birthday cake. Behind the men are bookcases, books, two windows with blinds drawn and a chest of drawers. Both men are wearing suits.
