- Description:
- One in a series of photographs of bank employees taken in 1955, this negative is marked "Doris Thrasher Thomas" in pencil along the top side. The Lane Brothers negative envelope (LBP45-172) is inscribed, "Fulton Nat. Bank, Personnel, James Austin, Doris Thrasher Thomas, Negro [circled], J. L. Nash (Negro)." This is the only negative in the envelope. A closely cropped version of this negative appeared in "Bank Notes: The Annual Photo Issue, published and printed monthly by and for employees of the Fulton National Bank of Atlanta, Atlanta, Georgia" (December 16, 1955), in the African-American section at the end of the publication, with the caption, "Doris Thomas, Cafeteria." A copy of this special issue featuring many photographs by the Lane Brothers is in the Lane Brothers Collection (LBDOCS28).
