Too big to be a doctor's bag. Looks more like a valise. Nearly every one has a rolled up paper in their hand or you can see it stuck in a pocket. Anybody else notice the eyeball scratched in the right-hand column?

Don't see no "eyeball" but there is a scratch on the column, probably not significant - I must be older than dirt, do believe that is a medical bag, long ago doctors carried larger bags as they went to further places in their area of practice, see the rolled papers, the "hats" appear to be like the straw ones used today for campaining, kind of like a band around it with a name on it, got one from long ago, what does the 'stick' the man is holding appear to be, second row down on left, must be significant as why would he have it?

You may be correct on the bag, just asked another researcher and he agrees it may be a valise or travel bag, may be this is a "good bye" photo or a "welcome" photo - we will solve this!!! delilah ----- Original Message ----- From: "Terry Jackson" <jacksont@otelco.net> To: <GEORGIA-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, March 14, 2004 8:05 PM Subject: Re: [GEORGIA] More on "legislators" photo > Too big to be a doctor's bag.
