Frank Romero, the only person facing away from the camera, wears a dark suit and cap, while holding a felt hat in his right hand. Family friend Kirk Vernon, wearing a felt hat with his left leg crossed over his right, sits next to Thomas Temple. Thomas also has his left leg over his right, and rests both hands on his left leg. Wearing a hat and a fox wrap around her neck is Maud Romero Bassity who is next to two unidentified women; both women are wearing coats and hats. The pitched roof of the station can be seen in the background left with a beam on the far left side. A wall with wood trim is on the right with a multi-pane window near the center.
