Description

Black and white photograph of a woman wearing a fromal dress with large leg-of-mutton sleeves. The dress is dark with white detailing (collar, floral decoration at cuffs). She stands with her right hand holding a rolled group of paper and resting on the back/arm of a wicker chair. In her left hand she holds a pair of shear, white lace gloves and a light colored rose. She appears to be a young- to middle-aged adult and has her medium-dark hair pulled back. The setting is inside, with light, shear material hanging in the background as a backdrop. This is most likely Minnie Burdick's mother, Alteria Melissa "Allie" Saunders (Prosser) At the top and bottom of the photograph are torn remnants of black paper that was adhered to the back of the photograph.
