From the Getty Museum record
View of a man, Ward Purdy, walking through Penn Station. He wears a suit and bowler hat and holds an overcoat and newspaper in one arm and holds a briefcase with the other. He faces image left and walks towards a gateway with a sign that reads "PHILADELPHIA EXPRESS / Newark / Trenton." In the background, other travelers mill around a light-filled hall. A clock hangs over the hall that reads 2:00pm.
