WALTER AND LAURA TEMPLE FAMILY, 10 OCTOBER 1919
Color: Black and white
A black and white reproduction photograph of the Walter and Laura Temple family, 10 October 1919. The family is shown in a studio with a false backdrop of soem kind of drapery and a column that is largely obscured. From left to right are: Walter P., Jr.; Agnes; Laura; Edgar; Walter P.; and Thomas. The boys wear identical military school uniforms of a light color with band collars, featuring gold medallion-like designs; emroidered decoration on the jackets and, in Thomas' case, sergeant's stripes on the upper sleeve. They have pants with side stripes and black shoes. Agnes wears a light colored dress, white house, black heeled shoes, and has a white bow in her hair. Laura wears a dark colored dress with a lace front, embroidered designs and white laced, heeled shoes. Walter, Sr. has a light colored striped three-piece suit with striped vest and tie and wears white shoes. The date and photographer are known because other negatvies (though not this, evidently) are in the George Steckel collection at the Seaver Center for Western History Research, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County. The photograph is in mint condition.
