Description
Photograph of seven women in sports attire seated on a dinghy dock sewing sails, [s.d.]. A woman in light-colored garb sits on the leftmost side, looking down at a piece of cloth. Beside her sits another bare-legged woman in a sleeveless shirt looking bemusedly into the camera lens. To her right Indian-sits a smiling blonde in shorts, followed by a pair of dark-haired ladies with their hands clutching portions of mast material. At the back to the right sits a woman in a checkered top holding a thread-bearing needle. In front of her, to the right, sits a woman in a dark shirt facing away from the camera. In front of her is a tea set with five cups and a dark-colored teapot. In the middle of the women sits a pile of crumpled light-colored cloth. All sit on a wooden docking area. To the right, a boat is tied, and in the background, the tips of three sailboat sterns can be seen tied to the wooden dock.
