Rural School Class Portrait. Material: paper. Size: 5" x 7" mounted on 7" x 10" frame. Description: black and white image of a young teacher with her 21 students posed in front of a white clapboard exterior of their school; the children are wearing long stockings, high top shoes and shirts and dresses with long sleeves. No students or location are identified, but perhaps this could be a school in Wilton Township and one of the students might be the father of the donor, Arthur Gehring (1897-1960).
