    Can't tell if the dog is sitting in the remnants of some old rolltop desk by the name of "PHENIX"
  • The Library of Congress said:
    You can have a closer look if you go to a higher resolution version that is available at the persistent URL listed in the description. Click on the thumbnail photo and then open the TIFF file.
  • porkfork6 said:
    That made a difference. In the TIFF the dog looks like he is missing an eye, the upright pencils on the front of the desk, and that there is a wooden-handled umbrella leaning on the fence behind them. It may also be shoelaces hanging in front of the dog.

    Here is Mr. Timothy Tobin of William Street, an Insurance Agent.

    He works for the Royal Liver Friendly Society.

    His daughter niece Mary is a clerk there.

    I think this is probably the office staff on an outing, and Mary may be here.

    The clean shaven man seated 3rd from our right looks rather like the young woman at his feet... Tim and Mary?
