Description
Three members of the Love Canal Homeowners Association including Al Posniak (at far right) standing side-by-side indoors, each wearing a white T-shirt that reads "LOVE CANAL Another Product from HOOKER CHEMICAL." They are posing humorously with the classic "hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil" gestures: the person on the left covers their ears, the middle one covers their mouth, and the person on the right covers their eyes. The background is dimly lit with a dark ceiling and minimal visible detail.
