Portrait of Al Opperman, taken during the beard growing contest, part of the joint celebration of the opening of the first Narrows Bridge and McChord Airfield. The portrait was taken aboard the party sailing of the ferry Kalakala, brought in for the last ferry sailing to the Key Peninsula, soon to be replaced by bridge travel. The 1941 City Directory lists an Albert W. Opperman, owner of Pioneer Sausage Supply, residing at 1109 N. Cedar with his wife Ida.
