She also looks slightly up into his eyes. There is a mirror on the wall behind them and a couch and smoking stand on the left side of the photograph. Two signs are behind the soldier. One says, Please present I.D. card to doorman." The other sign is partially obscured by the soldier. What can be seen says, "No one allowed in the [lue] room …"No datelikely circa 1950sDigitizing agency: University of Missouri--Kansas City. Library. Dr. Kenneth J. LaBudde Special Collections.
