| Title: | D.S. Baskets + Cans Sept. 9/38 |
| Keywords: | History
Garbage
Litter |
| Issue Date: | 16-Oct-2007 |
| Abstract: | White garbage can on a sidewalk near a lamppost; "BY LAW ABIDE PUT
TRASH INSIDE D.S." painted in block letters on can. |
| Description: | Black and white (possibly sepia-toned?) photo, glossy with white
borders, 8" x 10". Presumably taken September 9, 1938, from
information written on envelope. Brown stain on front looks like 3
drops of coffee in a line parallel to lamppost. Nothing on verso.
Provenance: removed from site by Robin Nagle, 9/07. One of two photos
found in kraft envelope; "NO NEG" written in black magic
marker across bottom (no negative found in envelope); pencil handwriting
across top center of envelope, left to right, reads "D.S. Baskets +
Cans Sept. 9/38." Second photo print is lighter; not scanned at
this time (10/11/07). |
