In the viewer lower left corner of the photo is a sewing machine. The other shop wall, to the viewer right, is papered with patterned wallpaper and has a fashion photograph toward the right edge. The photograph has a white border and is mounted on a two-toned dark brown paperboard backing. Handwriting on the back reads, "Chris Larsen taylors shop in Oakland 1908". |
