Skylab 3 photo KSC-73P-427 has this caption:
Skylab 3 science pilot Dr. Owen K. Garriott, commander Alan L. Bean and pilot Jack R. Lousma were photographed at the Kennedy Space Center today with the Skylab 3 space vehicle in the background. They were scheduled for launch on the second manned Skylab mission no earlier than 7:08 A.M. EDT, July 28.
I don't recall ever having seen this photo. Was the Skylab 3 crew suited, or were they in civilian clothes?

I have never seen any crew portrait photo of the Skylab 3 astronauts wearing their spacesuits. Has anyone seen such a photo?
