DescriptionThe German Shepherd, Rin Tin Tin (right), and his owner, Lee Duncan (front row, right), staff, porters, a maid, and conductors are in front of the Alvarado Hotel in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Pueblo pottery and baskets are arranged on the ground at the right with a woman in Pueblo clothing behind them. A woman wearing a maid’s uniform with a white apron and stark white collar attached to a dark dress, holds two puppies at the center of the arranged group. Several people reach for the puppy in her right hand. Another German Shepherd of a light coat, Rin Tin Tin's mate Nanatte, sits to the left of the woman attached to a leash.On View
