Description:
A: Envelope to hold negatives. Labeled: "4/11/54 Lutheran Confirmation".
B: Negative in horizontal view showing the interior of a church, looking toward the altar area. Eight people are in the image, four sitting and four standing behind them. The man standing at far right is a clergymen, but the rest appear to be adolescents being confirmed, all finely dressed. To the left of the image is a lectern, while in the background their is an artistic rendering of Christ, candelabrias, flags, and signs displaying Sunday school times and hymnal numbers.
C: Negative in horizontal view of the same interior with the same group, all standing this time. The camera's position is skewed slightly farther to the right, so chairs can be seen at the right side of the image, and the lectern at left is no longer visible.
