Description
Photograph of interior view of an observatory showing astronomers at work, ca.1920-1930. In the center of the picture, an elderly man leans over to peer through the eyepiece of what appears to be a telescope. A second man stands in an upright position behind him while assisting the first man with the eyepiece. To the right, two men stand facing the center as they look on, with what appears to be interest, at the other men. In the background, to the far right, a fifth man is barely visible. A sixth man stands behind the two men in the center. This photograph is a complete version of CHS-46535.
