Methodist Youth picnic

Title

Methodist Youth picnic

Description

Sepia-toned image of a group of young people picnicking in a forest. They are dressed casually, most of the young men in shirtsleeves and pants or overalls, while the girls wear loose skirts and tops. One girl wears a newsboy cap, and a youth in the back of the group wears overalls and a newsboy hat as well. These two young people also hold bottles of what appears to be wine. Another young woman in a cap is drinking from a bottle. Another young man holds a trumpet, while others are eating. Several young men in suits and hats watch from the back of the group, and at least one of these is smoking a cigarette.
