Description

Two dentists work on patients (the man in the chair in the foreground is one of the itinerant photographers) in an unidentified corner office in the B & I Building. A partition and curtains separate the work spaces. A sign on the partition reads: “An Idle Brain is the Devil’s Workshop.” The number “156” has been written on the emulsion side of the negative and is visible in the upper right corner of the picture. No number is written in the upper left corner.
