- An unused photographic postcard with a black-and-white image of Reverend Nelson Jordan seated outdoors on a bent wood loveseat. He wears a dark-colored three-piece suit and his hat is placed on the loveseat at his proper right side. He holds a paper in hand. A house or other wood-siding building is in the left background behind a white picket fence and a taller unpainted wooden fence. The loveseat is placed in the grass, with a pile of large logs in the right background. The verso contains a paper maker's mark in the upper right corner. The name "Reverend Nelson W. Jordan" is handwritten across the postcard where the message and address would normally be written.
