Denver City Councilman Martin D. Currigan poses for a studio portrait, possibly at photographer Joseph Collier's studio on Larimer Street in downtown Denver, Colorado. Currigan wears a wool coat over a plaid wool vest, a moustache, and a police star on his right breast pocket. His full stature and round facial features reportedly often caused people to mistake him for President Grover Cleveland.
