Color photograph. Rectangular. Shot landscape orientation. Pictured are seven dinner guests seated at a round table. There is a large floral arrangement centerpiece on the table. On the reverse, "5514" is written in blue ink in the bottom right corner. The reverse also includes a small label that lists in handwritten cursive the names of all the individuals in the photo. The names are not written in sequential left to right order, meaning most of them cannot be identified. Harriet Rice is pictured second from left, wearing a black floral dress.
