Description
This page of the scrapbook depicts sweet moments between Claude S. Buchanan and his future wife, Ruth Eldora Buchanan née Parrent. On the rightmost side, Claude shows off what he describes as "one of our 'best' photos," featuring him and Ruth standing hand in hand. Tickets from Club Pylon dances decorate the space in between photographs, perhaps from the events Claude and Ruth attended in each other's company. On the left, a picture of Claude and Ruth hitching a ride on a boat is visible, smiling and joyful.
