Title
Portrait of Myrtle Johnson and Anna Luster
Description
Circular photograph portrait of two women leaning against each other, with white lace shawls over their hair. A handwritten note on the back identifies them as Myrtle Johnson and Anna Luster, and states that the picture was taken on April 5, 1890.
Myrtle Johnson was a student at Tualatin Academy in Forest Grove in 1892. A surviving letter to Pacific University President Thomas McClelland shows that she requested a school catalogue for her friend, Anna Luster, that same year. However, Luster does not appear to have attended Pacific University or Tualatin Academy.
