Description
Card mounted glossy print of six women posed in the open doorway of a building.
Notes
These women are identified on the back as being 7¢ store clerks.

John Hood was a photographer in the London area in the 1880s. A guess has been made that this photograph was taken ca. 1885.

The photographer's stamp is on the back of the card and there is also a handwritten inscription on the back.

John Hood had a business for a brief time at 202 Dundas Street, the location shown on the map.
