The image is a black and white photograph of a man in a military uniform. The man appears to be in his late twenties or early thirties, with short hair and a mustache. He is wearing a collared shirt with a high collar and buttons down the front. He has a serious expression on his face and is looking directly at the camera. The photograph is framed by a thin black border. At the bottom of the photograph, there is text that reads "PTE. C. E. QUAID, 1st Battalion, East York, Regt. of 98, Kelgate, Beverley, Missing."
