Description
The stereograph features a black and white image of a man seated in a chair. He holds a book in his lap and a pipe in his proper left hand. A woman, presumably his wife, stands at his side while looking at the book. The image is mounted on a dark gray card with rounded edges. On the card's back, the title appears in six languages.
