This color slide depicts a crowd of men and women surrounding an open door at the back of a bus. Only the end of the blue and white bus is visible. Several figures can be seen inside through the windows. The men and women of the crowd stand facing the open door. Most of the individuals carry bags, blankets, and bundles in their arms. One individual, wearing blue pants and a checked shirt, holds a blue blanket on their head. The slide mount has text on the reverse that reads "processed by/ rogers color lab corp. / new york."
