Furniture Manufacturers Banquet
1914
The photograph was titled, "Banquet of Federated Furniture Associations." The inscription within the photograph reads, "Get Together Banquet, Furniture Manufacturers, Congress Hotel Wed., May 13, 1914." The head table runs almost the full length of the ballroom and the other members are seated at round tables. The large ballroom is filled to capacity with men, but no women appear in the picture. Notice the distortion in the lower corners due to camera angle.
