EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, Governors James F. Oyster of Maryland and William F. Gude of Delaware are seen in the reception line at an unidentified event in 1911. The Governors are dressed in formal attire, with Oyster wearing a bowler hat and both men donning suits and ties. They stand in front of an automobile, likely used to transport them to the event, with a banner bearing the insignia of their respective states hanging from the vehicle. Surrounding the Governors are a convoy of men in suits and hats, forming a reception committee. Some of these men are identified as George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze, but the identities of the others remain unknown. The scene exudes an air of patriotism and tradition, with the American flag visible in the background and the Governors' formal attire and bowler hats evoking the style of the early 20th century. The photograph was taken by Harris & Ewing, a prominent Washington D.C. photographic studio founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing in 1896. The studio's collection includes thousands of glass negatives, many of which document the political and social history of the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This image offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of American politics during this era, with its formal dress codes, patriotic displays, and sense of tradition.
