The woman, dressed in a long plaid period dress, appears to be sitting directly on the crescent moon against a dark “night sky” studio backdrop scattered with stars.The reverse has an AZO photographic postcard back and a faint handwritten identification that appears to read:“Bernice Hawes”
“661 Summer St.”
