A color half-tone print depicting a woman opening the doors to a cellar. This stereo card consists of two identical side by side images. In the daytime, outside of a light colored stone building, a hatted woman wearing a long sleeve pink top and grey-blue skirt, holds open both left and right wooden doors to a walk-up cellar. Leaning against both doors are children; a light haired one on the woman’s proper right, wearing a reddish jacket; a dark haired one on the left wearing a grey-blue top and red bottom. There is green grass or shrubbery surrounding the cellar and the children, at the bottom of the image. Above the cellar is a window with both green shutter doors opened and textured curtains are visible just beyond the window frame. Below the right image card, printed on the sheet in bold English, is: 93 [and] “Deed Child’s, I’s Didn’t Know You’s Was Dare.
