This Yard Long framed photograph
(46 inches long) from the very first ARRL Convention held in
Chicago, Illinois in 1921.
Photo taken by F.P. Burke of Chicago. A few of the attendees are
wearing their call signs on their suits and I have provided a few
close ups of those.
A group photo! Lots of suits and ties, typical for the day, a well dressed group!
