George D. Phillos and nephew John A. Secaras at the Chicago World's Fair. Avenue of flags behind. Light sepia toned photograph of a man with a suit and tie and a hat, with a cane in one hand. In the other hand, he holds the hand of a young boy dressed in a white shirt with a sailor's style collar, white shorts, a darker sweater or jacket, and a cane in one hand. Behind them are two long aisles of flags on either side of the avenue in the center. There are groups of people in the background.
