Description
Photograph of members of the Sunset Club posing in front of a Christmas Tree at Jerry Illich's restaurant, ca.1896. The club members are seated in a large group behind a long wooden bar that extends on the right side of the image. All of the members are turned in the general direction of the camera, but none of them is looking directly at it. They are all wearing suits and ties. The Christmas tree is at center and does not appear to be decorated. Large multi-colored banners are hung on the wall at right next to a thirteen-starred American flag.
