One black and white photograph of Toby David dressed as Captain Jolly, visiting a child who is in a hospital bed. David bends down toward the child and holds his right hand while speaking. The child looks toward the camera. Text to the left of the photograph reads, "Jerry Dempnock Associates." A green ink stamp on verso reads, "Photograph by Jerry Dempnock Associates, Fine Arts Building, Detroit 26, Mich. Phone: 963-1788." A typewritten note which originally accompanied the photograph read, "4. Toby David, CKLW-TV's Captain Jolly, pays bed-ridden Matthew Nyman a personal visit after presenting the TV set to the children's ward at Bon Secours Hospital. The other little patients gathered around Captain Jolly during the presentation. Matthew later broke into a happy grin after Captain Jolly spent a few moments cheering him."
