Description
Three adults are gathered in front of a brick building at night. The person on the left is wearing a "LOVE CANAL Another Product From HOOKER CHEMICAL" t-shirt and is holding a jug labeled "Donations – Don’t Dump LOVE CANAL PLEASE" with a red heart graphic. The person in the center wears a light-colored shirt and stands slightly behind the others. The person on the right, smiling broadly, wears glasses and a dark floral shirt. The scene appears to document a grassroots fundraising or awareness event related to the Love Canal environmental crisis.
