Description

Photograph, from left to right, of Earl Kellum sitting and Daisy Kellum standing on their family's front porch and looking to the right. They are viewed from a slight worm's-eye view. The front porch rail extends across the bottom edge of the image. Earl Kellum sits atop the rail, left-of-center, with his legs hanging off the edge. He faces towards the camera, but turns his head to look to the right. Daisy Kellum stands behind and to the right of him. She stands behind the rail and she too looks to the right. A porch column stands above the rail and along the right edge of the image. The front door of the house stands at far left behind the rail. A doorplate hangs down from the rail at left, it reads, "[1]416."
