DescriptionThis image depicts Fletcher Brumit, hotel manager, and an unidentified female employee in the upholstery department in the Hilton Hotel at Second Street and Copper Avenue in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The walls of the room are lined with shelves with large stacks of blankets, drapes, and other pieces of upholstery on them. In the center of the room Brumit and the woman are observing three large rolls of fabric. The one that is currently partially unrolled has a Native American style pattern on it. Both people are looking at the bit of the roll currently held in the woman's hands.On View
