  • Description
  • A man, stogie in his mouth, plots his next checkers move against his female opponent. The positioning of his hand hints that he may be in a tricky spot, so serious thought is necessary to find a solution. In the background are the tents their group camps in. In the late 19th and early 20th century Oakmont was a popular summer camping destination. Originally from the collection of Mrs. Chester P. Gallagher, Rosslyn Farms, Carnegie, PA.
