Mounted on artist's board (20 x 16 inches) with a hinged matt frame partly pasted onto the top and side margins of the board. Signed and titled by Standish in pencil on the board directly underneath the mounted print. Laid down on the back of the mount is a typed paper label (a technical note about the print and Boston address of Standish), and two printed exhibition labels. Also on the back is one exhibition ink stamp: "Philadelphia Salon of Photography".
