Description

Black and white photographic print of Fred, Irene and Willard playing at the lakeshore in bathing suits. Irene, on right, is wearing a straw hat and she's lifting a wide board tied to another board in water. Willard, in foreground left, has a stick or net in his right hand and he is looking very intently at the water. Fred is laying on his stomach on the dock with his head hanging over the right edge, looking at the water. The other side of the lake is in background with a row of pines. From a series of photos of the Seiberling's summer home in and around Hessel, Michigan.
