Print of framed portrait of Wyoming First Lady Casey Herschler. The portrait frame is golden colored and likely gilded. The First Lady is wearing a white/pale pink long sleeved shirt or dress, with a jacket of the same color that has fur around the sleeves and collar. She has short brown hair and is probably in her 70s or 80s.
The print is inscribed "To Iona & Bud With gratitude & a deep friendship, Casey Herschler" in black ink.
Removed from frame for preservation purposes. When removed, a second photograph and a photocopied letter were found tucked in the back. The photo is B/W and is also of Casey Herschler, probably taken around the same time as the portrait. It is inscribed "To Iona with love, Casey" in black marker. "1986" is written on the back in blue ink. The copied letter is undated but contains a poem about the First Lady and is signed "Al Zimmerman"Collection
