Description

Doc Ashby and Mr. Kelly at the Iowa Picnic in Lincoln Park. Doc Ashby has his hands in his lapels and has his eyes closed and his lips sticking out. He holds his coat over his arm. Mr. Kelly stands next to him wearing a three piece suit, a hat, and glasses. There are other people throughout, as well as trees in the background.
The assumption has been made that "Doc" is short for doctor in the name "Doc Ashby."
