Maxwell Photography, American · ca. 1917

Black and white photographic postcard depicting a woman standing beside a wooden chair. The chair is plain with a rounded backrest and a back made of wooden slats. The figure's proper right hand rests on the chair back and her gaze is fixed to the right of the viewer. She wears a large embellished floral hat, high-necked blouse, strand of pearls, long tailored jacket, belted skirt, and gloves. She holds a small square purse by its chain in her proper left hand. Embossed text at the bottom left reads "Maxwell / 2607 LAWTON AVE / ST. LOUIS." The reverse is white with black printed text. It reads "POST CARD" across the top left. There is a short vertical line down the center. Letters on the left side read "Correspondence Here" and on the right side "Name and Address Here." There is a square on the upper right corner with the words "Place Stamp Here." The name 'Dovie Wright Jordan' is handwritten in pencil at the bottom right.
