A man is pictured in black and white, standing in front of a doorway. He is well-dressed in a light-colored suit with a bow tie, pocket square, and a visible ring on one hand. The man has neat, short hair, a receding hairline, and a clean-shaven face. The background shows a building with a glass brick wall and a sign for "Law Offices, Paul C. Tate, Donald J. Tate." Another man, dressed casually in a T-shirt and dark pants, is leaning against the wall nearby. The lighting creates distinct shadows on the pavement.
