069 - Three Campers Seated on Outdoor Cabin Steps

Image

Three campers relax outdoors on the front steps of a cabin. Two of the campers, one holding a stuffed animal, are sharing a book. The third camper, seated on a lower step, is looking at a large book. Original caption notes: "Informal drawing and painting are enjoyed in many leisure moments, especially by the campers in Cabin V. The non-competitive and more leisurely type of program is ideally suited to girls of all ages."
