Visual descriptionwritten by a machine · unchecked

A vertically oriented smartphone screenshot shows a social-media comment thread on a white background. Five visible commenters discuss trying to identify people in a photograph, with small circular profile images beside the comments and reaction icons along the right edge. A partially obscured comment field appears at the bottom, and the phone status bar is visible at the top.

A model wrote this. It was shown the image and the catalogue record together, and asked to keep them apart — what it saw is here, what the record told it is under "taken from the record" below. It is still wrong often enough to matter, about who is pictured, where, when, and what is happening. Read it as a way to find the image, never as evidence about it. If you can correct it, please do: write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com, or see how corrections work. Someone who recognises a face or a shoreline knows more than the model did.

I thought it was Joe Mafro when I first looked at the picture, I don't think it's Mike Cull but can't remember what Chapman looked like. I know he never got his clothes or woman he ordered out of the catalog though.

Julie, he couldn't understand why just her underwear showed up !! I think Big Dick is on the far right and not Joe Mafro. I thought maybe was Chappie second to left or Harlem.

Mary DeVogel Pischner · 13y

Taken from the record

Not observed in the image — supplied by the archive's own catalogue, and repeated here so the two stay distinguishable.

Posted by Suzanne Jule to a public Facebook group on 2026-01-12, according to the catalogue record.

Could not make out

Stated rather than guessed at.

The image being discussed is not visible. The bottom comment field is partly obscured, and some status-bar symbols are indistinct.

Rights and credit

Community source, no stated terms; published non-commercially with attribution to the poster and a link to the original post.

Credit this to Individual posters, credited per image when you use it.

Why this archive publishes it. Public Facebook groups and pages run by island organisations and residents. Each item credits the poster by name and links to the original post. Removal on request.

Material goes off the web without anyone deciding that it should: a host lapses, a gallery is retired, a link stops resolving. Holding a copy — with its provenance, its checksum and its holder's terms recorded beside it — is much of why this archive exists. If you are looking for something whose original has since gone, write to michael.bommarito@gmail.com and a full-size copy of what is held here will be sent to you.

Recorded verbatim from the provenance sidecar taken at retrieval — this archive does not restate a holder's terms in its own words, does not add a restriction the holder did not state, and does not abridge one.

The archive holds its own copy of that file and will supply it on request; it is not re-served here, because the holder serves it better and a second copy is a second thing to go stale.
