Description
This image appears to be of a tall, corner office that is part of an office suite on the top floor of the Security Building. A man, dressed in a light-colored suit is seated at a large, roll-top desk at left. Against the right wall, and behind the man, is a podium-height desk, on top of which is a large open ledger. A small window may be seen above the roll-top desk at left. There is a large window with a curved top, striped awning and roller shade on the back wall between the two desks. On the far right, next to the taller desk, is a door leading into another office. The upper right wall above the door and taller desk contains windows looking into the adjacent office. The curved top of an outside window with a striped awning is visible through the interior windows in the right wall. A spittoon and steam heat register may be seen next to the large window. The number “234” has been written on the emulsion side of the negative and is visible in the upper right corner of the picture. The number “3” is written in the upper left corner.
