This one is framed, but if I recall correctly the caption says something to the effect that this woman is a professional wildlife scientist, and you really shouldn't feed bears like this yourself.
In case you're wondering, 212 S. Beach Blvd. still seems to be a motel:
...and the Greenbrier Hotel is not only a going concern, but a vast cluster of buildings that looks like the presidential palace of a nineteenth century empire plopped down in the West Virginia hills.
