Sepia-toned fraternal carte-de-visite photograph. Full length portrait of unidentified man wearing dark coat and pants, dark shoes, white shirt, and fraternal apron and collar of the Order of United American Mechanics. Collar has three parallel bands of different colors, possibly red, white, and blue, along with a white fringe. Apron has a triangle-shaped symbol, as well as some text (including the name and number of the subject's council) that is partially covered by the man's jacket. Man is standing in front of a wall. There is nothing written on the back of the carte-de-visite.
