Color: Black; White
A black and white photograph of Thomas and Nellie Didier Temple with two unknown children, ca. 1920s. The group stands at the center on the steps of the building with Thomas at the far left. He wears a tie, three-piece suit, and has his left hand in his pants' pocket and the other at his side. Nellie stands at the middle and wears pearls, a sleeveless dress, heels, and has both arms at her sides. The girl at the far right wears a sleeveless knee-length dress, socks, and buckle shoes. She has her left arm at her side and her right hand on the right shoulder of the boy who stands on the step below. The boy wears a jumper, a man's tie, and has his arms at his sides. Across the background are three of the brick building's columns. At the right are the circular designs around the front entrance and the top of the double-doors. At the top left is, "WALTER P." Written in pen at the bottom of the back is, "Do. Grumand - / 357 - W. 66th St. / L.a. [sic] / TW. 7029." Below this is a stamp that reads, "ANDERSON / Photo Service / EL MONTE." At the top right is the number, "9." 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 and a heavy stain at the bottom, the artifact is in fair condition.
