Description

Studio photo of a taking a swig from a flask. He is not wearing a coat or vest and has his free hand parked on his hip. His swaggering pose is at odds with the tone the faux-pleasure garden backdrop is designed to achieve. Cabinet card by Billings, Fennville. Pencil writing on the back of the card is unreadable but a green post-it notes the man to be George W. Gaze (1832-1900), Taylor Cemetery. It could also be George W.'s son George C. Gaze (1867-1953).
