Here we see a Detroit boy in his First Communion suit in 1930. The studio was S.A. Rochowiak, 8714 W. Jefferson Ave., Detroit, Michigan. The actual pgotographic image is about 3½" x 5¾". The fancy paper frame/holder was done with a cover. The paper frame is about 5¾" x 8½". The boy wear a conservative dark suit. We are not sure if this one is navy blue or black. We can't make out much detail. It is a knickers suit. He is wearing a white shirt and white tie. He wears black long stockings with the suit along with low-cut oxfords. He has a white sleeve bow.
