Description |
Black and white negative of Orida Olds standing on a dock, holding a hunted bobcat by its back legs. Orida is wearing pants, a jacket, and boots. Trees and water in the background. Pictured on p. 226 of "Into the Florida Wilderness: Pioneer life and medicine Southwest Florida, A journey with Drs. Mary and Louis Olds" by Elizabeth McDonald Perdichizzi. Possibly the bobcat referenced in a Feb. 7, 1919 letter from Mary Olds to Louis Olds that says "Orida got a large wildcat in one of her traps this morning - Saloma is just photographing her with it."
