A black and white photograph of Luis Fatjo on a ship through the Panama Canal, April 22, 1930. Fatjo is at the right and leans on both elbows against the rail of the ship's deck. He holds the binoculars that are around his neck and a cigar in both hands while looking to the left. He wears eye-glasses, a long-sleeved shirt, which he has rolled up to the elbows, and dark trousers. At the left is part of the canal with many posts lining the shore. In the background are hills and mountains. On the back is a stamp reading, "WEBCO PRINT / APR 22 1930 / MADE IN SAN JOSE / 604." The photograph was taken during Fatjo's honeymoon with Agnes Temple and was housed in 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 light creases across the front, the object is in good condition overall.
