Description
Photographic portrait of Peter J. Horsch on the roof of a building, ca.1930. A hawkish man, who appears to be in his early fifties, is pictured in full figure at center dressed in a pinstripe suit. He looks off towards the left with his head slightly inclined upward. The brick walls of the roof are visible around him, and a drain can be seen near his feet. He looks out over the roof of the Main Building Home Office. He retired from the Title Insurance Company in 1950.
