A black and white photograph of an unknown man and woman with rifles, July 19, 1930. The couple stands at the center and facing to the left with the woman at the left side. She wears a hat, short-sleeve dress, and holds a rifle in front of her with both hands. The man wears a cap, hunting trousers, tall boots, and holds a rifle up with both hands against his stomach. Around his waist is a belt with amunition. The couple is on an incline which has weeds and tall grass. A row of trees and bushes is in the background. On the back is most of a bear-shaped stamp with the words, "GENUINE KRYSTAL GLOSS / GUARANTEED FOREVER / JUL 19 1930 / SERVICE." The photograph was housed in Agnes Temple's album which is item 96.7.94.1 along with many other photographs which span 96.7.1.1-.93.1. Contact sheets 2000.159.1.1-.8 show the original positioning of the images within the album. With water damage, some stains, and a mounting corner adhered to the top left, the artifact is in fair condition overall.
