AI Notes
A black-and-white photograph mounted on the lined-paper album page, captioned in pencil below in the compiler’s hand: ‘Mary Ann Walker — 1941.’ Mary Ann is shown standing at a kitchen stove or counter, wearing a light short-sleeved blouse and a floral printed apron, with shoulder-length dark wavy hair. She is holding a small container or jar in her hands and looking down at it; a frying pan sits on the stove at her left, with an open egg already cracked into it. A small ‘3’ is visible at the lower-right corner of the photograph (likely a print sequence number from the original photographer’s contact sheet). Photographed shortly before her May 1941 wedding to Oswald Beverley McEwan (see pages 183 and 187).
