5 x 8 silver gelatin studio portrait showing a young man posed full length wearing what appears to be a fireman’s uniform and holding a ceremonial fire axe. The photograph is mounted on a dark beveled studio board bearing the printed imprint: Armantrout Bros., 118 E. Oklahoma Ave., Guthrie, Okla. The sitter is unidentified. The subject stands facing the camera wearing a dark uniform jacket with decorative piping and metal buttons, a belt with rectangular buckle, and a peaked cap featuring an emblem at the center. He holds a long handled axe resting over his shoulder, the blade visible at left. His trousers are dark and straight cut, and he wears polished shoes. The studio backdrop includes draped fabric, an ornamental pedestal or clock form, and a potted palm set beside a small table, typical of early twentieth century portrait interiors. The mount features a recessed window and beveled border. No additional text visible on the front beyond the photographer’s imprint. Reverse not shown.
