A black and white reproduction photograph of an unknown man, ca. 1870s. The mustached man stands at the center of the full-body studio portrait and faces the camera.

The man's left arm is at the side while the right rests on a wood baluster. A light-colored derby hat rests on the baluster and the floor has floral-pattern carpeting. The background is a blank wall with a baseboard. Written in blue pencil on the top left corner of the back is, "RALPH / CAROL TEMPLE COLLECTION / MAY 1995." Contact sheets for the image are items .35-37 with the negatives being items .2.1-.17. The artifact has no visible signs of damage or wear and is therefore in good condition.
