Spelling Contest
Title
Spelling Contest
Description
Black and white image of a crowd of people in a park, all facing a gazebo. Bunting and United States flags hang above the crowd, and many of the women wear long white dresses and large hats with feathers. One girl wears a knee-length white dress and a bonnet. A group of schoolboys at the back of the crowd wear white shirts and knickerbockers. A car is parked in the foreground of the image, and a man is putting down the top. Houses are just visible behind the trees on the edge of the park.
