Description

Color: Black; White A black and white photograph of a man smoking a cigarette on a ship, 1930. The man is standing at the left center and wears a long-sleeved shirt, tie, knickers, long socks, and two-toned shoes. He has his right hand on his hip, left hand on the deck rail, and has a cigarette between his lips. Part of one of the ship's smoke stacks is in the background as well as part of a mast, a room, and several riggings. The photograph was taken during Agnes Temple's honeymoon and was housed in her 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, stains, and ink smears from another photograph, the object is in poor condition.
