Half-length portrait of Prince Wilhelm of Sweden. He is facing front, wearing a hat and overcoat, and holding what appears to be a cigarette. The text “Prince William” is written on the negative and is visible on the left side of the image. The photograph may have been taken on November 3, 1927, when the prince arrived in Portland to visit the city and give lectures in Portland and Astoria. A similar photograph of Prince Wilhelm was published on the front page of the Oregon Journal on November 3, 1927, under the headline “Swedish Prince City’s Guest.” That photograph accompanied a story headlined “Royal Visitor is Found Democrat.” See related image Nos. 371N2055 and 371N2057.
