DescriptionA girl wearing a double-breasted coat, hat, hair ribbon, shoes, and stockings stands on the sidewalk in front of a commerical building, evidently a saloon, with signs that read: "[LAG]ER BEER, ALES & PORTER" "THE H[EUBLEI?]N / BREWING CO.'S / LAGER BEER". A sign on the porch reads: "MCGUIR[E?]" The girl holds a bundle of newspapers. The pavement appears to be wet, as if it were raining.
