InscribedOn verso, in ink, on both images: "Merton Whitford". See Notes field for information on the identification of the subject.NotesSubject Note: The identity of the subject of these images is in question. The inscription on verso of both photographs clearly says Merton Whitford. However, another image, 2002.73.8, with undoubtably the same man, is labeled as Arthur Lewis. Other images of a slightly younger man identified as Mr. Lewis also appear to be the same person.Arthur Lewis died 10 October 1951 at age 79.
