10"h x 8"w black and white photo of Lettie Dent Gough, Zachariah Blackistone, and Fannie Jo Dent on the occasion of Mr. Blackistone's 107th birthday party in Georgetown. Lettie had on a skirt with matching jacket in a dark fabric with sizable white circles. Under the jacket she wore a white knit top. She had on a white winter knit hat that resembled a beehive. She wore a large locket on a chain and earrings. Mr. Blackistone had on a dark suit with barely visible buffalo checks, white shirt, a paisley tie and a V-neck button up the front sweater. He had a carnation in his buttonhole. His white hair was combed straight back. The only thing I recognize on his plate is French fries and possibly broccoli. Fannie Jo wore a white beret [something of a signature for her] and a knit dress with a large pointed collar. It had self buttons down the front and deep cuffs on the long sleeves. She wore a pin, a string of pearls, and pearl earrings.
