- 1 page, double-sided. On recto is a b&w group portrait with white border. A man stands behind a seated girl. A young boy sits on a raised seat to the left of her, and a young girl sits on a similarly raised seat to the right of her. They appear to be in a photography studio, on a platform composed of tree stumps and branches. On verso, handwritten Yiddish text. Document is a postcard.
