- Description:
- The department heads of Joseph and Feiss Company, mostly male, all light skinned, arrayed in four rows of 8-9 people. Those in the front row have taken to one knee, and those in the back are standing on a table. Most men are dressed somewhat casually: only a few at the center wear jackets, some have rolled sleeves, and none wear hats. Expressions in this photo fall between 'slightly amused' and 'bored.' Joseph and Feiss Company was a retailer of men's and boy's clothing; also sold piece goods to tailors; also manufactured its own line of clothing for men as "Clothcraft." Photo taken Nov. 1932.
