THANKSGIVING PLACE CARD FOR SYLVESTER DUPUY FROM HIS PARTY, CA. 1928
Color: Black; Blue; Red; White; Yellow
A place card for Sylvester Dupuy from a Thanksgiving dinner hosted by him and his wife, ca. 1928. The front of the card has a color image of young girl, woman, or angel, with a headdress and long train, and she is holding a multicolored bouquet of flowers or something perhaps more abstract. Her body is yellow and she has blue eyes, red lips, and rosy cheeks. At the bottom is space for the occupant's name and written in pencil is "Sylvester." On the reverse is his signature. There are surface abrasions and losses on both sides, surface soiling, browning, and a few stains on the card, which is in fair condition.
