Tualatin Plains Sunday School Picnic

Title

Tualatin Plains Sunday School Picnic

Description

Sepia-toned image mounted on dark card stock of a large group of people outdoors. The men and boys are largely grouped on one side, while the women and girls are on the other. One man with a clerical collar holds a small child wearing overalls; other children are seated on the ground at the front of the group. Clothing is indicative of the early 1900s; the women wear light-colored, high-necked blouses with full sleeves, tucked into long skirts and sport large, flat hats. The men wear wide neckties and suits, and their hats vary from Panama style to boaters to regular fedoras. A number of the boys wear newsboy caps and a couple have large straw hats.
