Description

Portrait orientation of the photo. A small child, identified as Bobby Gant, stands in the center of the photo, supported on one side by a chair seat and on the other side by the hands of 2 other children whose faces are partially visible on the right. Bobby is looking straight out at the world, but not into the camera lense. He is barefoot and appears to be standing on a piece of linoleum. His feet and legs are dusty. He has on a dress with a large collar and there are several tucks at the neckline of the dress. The dress is either damp or stained all down the front and around the hem. He has something dark in his mouth that might be a bottle stopper. His hair is very short. He is probably not able to stand well on his own, which explains the support of the 2 children who are peeking around the door jamb to the right.
