Back of card is blank.  The young man is posed on a semi-formal interior set, with an animal skin rug that adds a bit of a sense of the wild frontier.  He appears to be about 16 years old, with a rolled certificate and lapel ribbon indicating the occasion.  He is handsome and vivacious, and stands in a relaxed pose that perhaps is meant to portray a casual confidence.  He is dressed in a dark two button jacket with matching white pants, shirt, starched collar, and bow tie.
