The black and white photograph depicts a large metal post standing on the side of a road, bearing two signs for the Drew Chamber of Commerce. The top sign lists various objectives such as promoting public relations, organizing conventions, improving streetscapes, maintaining community pools, supporting agricultural fairs, encouraging trade events like "Trade 'Days," beautifying city areas, and holding county field meetings.
Below this list is another sign with a handwritten note that reads "#2390 Photo by Lange, Dec 15th Main Street of Drew Miss." The handwriting suggests the image was taken on December 15th at the main street in Drew. Additional details like "Drew Chamber of Commerce" and specific objectives are clearly visible on both signs.
The environment around the post is not fully detailed but seems to be an urban or semi-urban setting, with a road beside it that might suggest some level of traffic activity. The presence of such signs indicates community efforts towards development and enhancement within Drew.
