Update 2009: Black and white print attached to black mat in which the top two corners are cut off at an angle. The lower mat edge has been irregularly cut off and has a jagged edge. Print shows a group of men and women sitting on the wide front steps of the original Carbon County Courthouse. The women are dressed in long skirts and blouses or long dresses. Men are dressed in suits, shirts, and ties of various types. The men are all wearing hats of various styles. The background shows two dark large wooden doors at the top of the stairs and block cut sandstone building front of either sides of the door. This same stone is used to make a wall on both sides of the steps from ground level to top level. The numbers 2, 4 and 5 in pencil are written on certain people. Unknown what this is reference to.
