A vertical black-and-white photograph depicts a group of four light-skinned, young and middle-aged men sitting around a wooden table inside a brick building. Some men wear hats, a plaid jacket, or striped overalls, and most of them hold playing cards with expressions of concentration on their faces. A poster behind them advertises for the "WESTLAND OIL COMPANY."
