Children accompany the women, along with a dog. Horse drawn buggies and scattered buildings are in the background. It looks as if makeshift roofs cover a certain space. Perhaps this is the cooking crew for a Church of the Brethren Annual Conference? | | Date of Accession | 03 August 2011 | | Archivist Note | Many panoramic and oversized photographs were rolled up and stacked on a metal shelf in the photograph section of the Archives. These pictures had become dry and were impossible to unroll. The Archivist took the photographs outside on an extremely humid and hot summer day. In about 30 minutes the photographs had relaxed enough to unroll and were brought back into the Library and pressed under books, using archival photo file folders as blotters between pictures.
