Black and white photograph. Four adults stand around a large, complex console covered in rows of knobs, switches, and patch cords. On the far left, a man in a dark suit and thick-rimmed glasses smiles while adjusting a knob on the machine. Next to him, a man in a tweed-like jacket looks down seriously. To the right, an older woman with glasses leans in with her mouth open in a humorous expression of shock or awe; her light-colored smock is embroidered with script text reading Cheer Guild. Beside her on the far right, a woman wearing a uniform with a Hospital Auxiliary Member patch on the sleeve smiles at the device.
