DescriptionCecil de Mille, director and actor, stands on a brick walkway outside the Alvarado station in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Tracks and train cars are seen in the background behind him that reads "... R. E. P. FLOUR." Cecil de Mille stands at an angle, facing the viewer's right, and smiles. He holds a folded newspaper in his hands. He wears a pinstriped three-piece suit with a tie. He wears his light-colored knickerbockers and tall socks. Shadows of figures are cast upon the ground at his feet.
