Black and white view of two men flanking a statue. The statue featuring a bust of a young woman reads:

Mollie Walsh // alone without help // this courageous girl // ran a grub tent // near Log Cabin // during the gold rush // of 1897, 1898 // she fed and lodged // the wildest gold crazed men // generations // shall surely know // this inspiring spirit // murdered Oct, 27, // 1902.

Inscription verso: L - R John (Packer Hack) Newman // bust of Mollie Walsh // James A. Wehn - Seattle sculptor Sept. 26, 1930 //
