A close detail view of the shipboard bridge whist game identified elsewhere in the album as featuring Secretary of War William Howard Taft, his wife, Mr. Stanworth, and Capt. Cloman, playing cards beneath a deck awning during an official inspection voyage in the Caribbean or Panama Canal Zone, c. 1905-1908. This enlarged crop brings the sitters' expressions and period dress into sharper focus, offering a rare informal view of a future U.S. president at leisure. Project: 218602
