DescriptionTen carhops from Katson’s Drive-In restaurant line up for a photograph on Broadway Boulevard in Albuquerque New Mexico. They are wearing shiny short-sleeved blouses and pleated skirts with white boots and top hats. The hats have the word "Katson" on them. Some of the women appear to be wearing round name badges. A person with a drum and another with a trumpet can be seen behind the women on the right of the frame. Albuquerque High School at the corner of Broadway and Central Avenue is in the background. A Texaco sign can also be partially seen above the women, and directly behind them is the D.D. Fuller Tire Company, which is located on 320 East Central Avenue in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
