In this portrait, a gentleman by the name of Rolla looks down at the saxophone in his hands. He was purportedly a member of the Clyde McCoy band and has signed the photograph over the breast of his tuxedo "To Clyde. Sorry I couldn't sell you a house. Rolla". It is unclear what this message means or what it has to do with Hixon and the photograph, but serves as an interesting snapshot in time nonetheless. As the photograph was treated with a dark contrast, the metal of the saxophone seems to pop out of the shot. Rolla, too, appears to emerge from the darkness of the background and his tuxedo, leaving just he, the saxophone, and the message for viewing.
