EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures Melville Clyde Kelly, a Representative from Pennsylvania, in the early 1910s. The image, created by Harris & Ewing, showcases Kelly in a formal attire typical of the era, wearing a dark suit, crisp white shirt, and a Panama hat. The Congressional Library of the United States of America houses this glass negative in their vast collection, which adds to the historical significance of the photograph. Melville Clyde Kelly served in the United States Congress from 1913 to 1915 and later from 1917 to 1923. The photograph was taken during his second tenure in Congress. The setting for the portrait is not clear, but the background suggests a studio environment. The photographer, Harris & Ewing, was a renowned photographic studio based in Washington D.C., known for its high-quality portraits of politicians and other notable figures. The photograph provides a glimpse into the fashion trends of the time, with Kelly's Panama hat being a popular accessory for men during the early 1900s. The hat's wide brim and distinctive crown were designed to protect against the sun, making it a practical choice for both work and leisure. The photograph also reveals the attention to detail in the clothing of the era, from the creases in Kelly's trousers to the neatly tied bow tie. Overall, this photograph is an essential addition to any collection of early 20th-century American history and political memorabilia.
