This is another photo from an auction sale. I don’t have any information on the image. To me the two young people in the photo look like siblings. But I am only guessing.
Focusing on boy’s attire especially the tweed jacket and the girl’s wire rimmed glasses, I am placing this image in the late 1930s.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
I know there’s still a couple spots on this image. But the original photograph was damaged. I didn’t want to lose all of the details. Anyway, I purchased this image as part of an auction lot.
Unfortunately, the only information on the photo is the year-1923. I wonder if the young couple are standing in front of their new home. Or perhaps, they just got engaged.
What do you think?

I picked this photo up at an auction sale. Unfortunately, the image does not contain a date. But I would place the image in the late 1930s or early 1940s. I am basing this guess on the clothing, hair style, and the type of photo.
The photo does have details on the back:
Henry & Emma Shoberg, Mathilda Shoberg Sarver Killeen, & Ellen V. Shoberg Dahlin.
I am assuming this is a family gathering. There are others swimming in the river. Perhaps, the photo was taking at a family reunion or just a day out.

Since I was 11 years old, I have loved photography. My grandpa gave me his used 126 Film Camera. (This should provide insight into my age). The camera actually took a film cartridge. I thought it was amazing. I took, it everywhere with me. Of course, cameras have drastically changed. But I still enjoy my long love affair with photography.
Now, my photography falls into three categories: wildlife & nature, travel, and vintage photo restoration. I love lighthouses. As I travel around my state, I am hoping to photograph every lighthouse in Michigan.
I am the type of person who can watch wildlife all day and not get bored.
I am new at using some of the latest tools for photo restoration. I still have a lot to learn. But I love how the photos are transformed.
Keep taking photos!
Until next time…peace
Like most of my photos, I do not have any information. From the style of her dress and shoes, I am placing this photo in the early 1940s. She appears to be posing by a flower bush. I wonder if her dress is for a special occasion?
Of course, I am only guessing.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
Here’s another photo from an estate sale Unfortunately, this image does not contain any written information.
The background shows rustic type cabins. There’s even deer heads sticking out over the entry ways. I would like to think they were on a vacation retreat. The hood is up which makes me think they are getting ready for the trip home. The gentleman was most likely checking all the fluid levels before traveling.
Google suggests the car is a 1948 Chevrolet Fleetmaster. But I cannot confirm the details. If someone is a car buff, please let me know if the information is correct.
The car year does coincide with the photo era. I am placing the photo in the early 1950s.

This is another image from an estate sale. I was lucky with this photo. There’s a little information on the print.
If I am reading it correctly, it says. “Belden Burr Smith” with the year 1947.
I just love photo because he looks so happy to have a little tent.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
I was lucky with this image. There is a little information on the back of the image: Bud & Gladys, July 21, 1948.
I wish I could see the details of the dress. I am assuming the happy couple is standing outside of a church.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
I purchased this photos from an auction sale. There’s no identifying marks on the back of the photo. The image is an antique cabinet card photograph by Frank J. Gorzycki. According to Google, he operated a photography studio in Detroit, Michigan.
The family is dressed in formal attire which was fashionable in the 1920s.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
I bought this image as part of an auction sale. I love the fact this image has information written on the back. The downside…it’s hard to read.
The photo was taken in 1951 at a Farm Bureau Picnic. The gentlemen in the photo are: Walter Brewsinger (?), Frank Forshee, Art Kuhl, _____ Horning, Rha Arnold, & Don Johnson.
Of course, after starring at this photo, I wonder the flavor of pie.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
