Description
A man sits on a parked motorcycle with one leg raised and resting on the handlebars. A partial view of two additional men appears on the left edge of the image. One man identified as "me" by a pencil inscription above his head, seems to rest his head on, or stand very close to the arm of another man whose head is cropped out of the image. There is also one foot in the foreground, wearing a laced boot that presumably belongs to the photographer, who must be sitting on the ground to take this photograph. The camera angle is low, so the other men are seen from below. There are two names inscribed in blue ink on the bottom margin "Louie" and "Trimello ?" appearing from left to right.
