A 3"x4" glass plate negative, portrait photograph of Lizzie and May Mericle, David City, Nebraska. One woman is wearing a dark brocade, long-sleeve dress with wing collared bodice, under blouse with dark brocade fabric gathered onto a lighter colored yoke with a pin on the seam line, another pin on the softly gathered high-stand collar and a black hat with black ostrich feathers draping over both sides and crown, wide dark ribbons secured with a brooch in front. The other woman is wearing a skirt with fabric belt over-lapping in front, long-sleeve satin blouse with softly gathered bodice, yoke and high-stand collar with a narrow-brimmed velvet hat with loops of stiff ribbon and beaded wire covering the crown.
