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!
