DescriptionA large photograph of Helen Cheney (Bayne) leans against what appears to be the outside wall of a wooden house. In the photo, Helen wears a light-colored dress with puffy sleeves that end half-way down her arm. Her hair is in a bun and she may be wearing dangling earings. She looks to the right. The image is pinned to some kind of backing, which rests on top of a framed checker or chess board, and is leaned back against the wall.
