Description

Black-and-white photograph of Dr. Homer Sampson and Dr. Leroy Gardner looking at a back-lit display of x-rays. Dr. Gardner is holding a pipe in his right hand. Image was attached to a piece of cardboard backing with a label attached. The label has mostly been ripped off, but it appears to be an entry form for a photography contest. The handwritten caption on the back reads, "Science Study," and it is stamped "Edward L. Gockeler, 69 Park Avenue, Saranac Lake, N. Y." The glue has deteriorated so the photograph and backing are separate.
