Scope and Contents

Negative no.A902. August 9, 1919. Image depicts men playing doubles tennis, most likely as part of a "Field Day" organized by the Draper Corporation for Draper Corporation employees. Two men are in the far court (one is in the backcourt, in the extreme left background) and a third man is in the near court. The fourth player is presumably out of camera range on the right.
