Visual Description: A woman wearing an orange, prairie-revival style dress sits and faces the camera. She has brown hair worn in a braid with hime-style bangs. She wears blue-rimmed eyeglasses that help her to see. Her hands are covered in blue-colored powder-free nitrile gloves, which create a barrier between her skin and the paper pamphlet that she holds. There are bookshelves filled with a variety of books in the background.

Description: I read the "Design & Construction of All - American Outhouses" pamphlet by Jackpine Bob Cary of the American Society of Outhouse Architects. It was very unique. I have no idea how my grandparents came to be in possession of it originally, but they decluttered it and gave it to my dad, whom I borrowed it from to read. I feel like the pamphlet romanticized early American life, and had some humorous anecdotes; that said, I think it could've given more detailed architectural plans.
