I pulled this image off a slide which was part of an estate sale. If I researched correctly, I believe this is The Montreal Expo.
The slide does have a date of October 1967.

October 1967-The Montreal Expo
Girls in the Snow
The image doesn’t contain any identifying marks. Two girls posing behind the piles of snow. They seem happy and enjoying the outdoors. They look a little like sisters but I think they are best friends.
From the type of the photo and the style of clothing, I am guessing, the image was taken in the 1920s.

Two Men in Front of Signs
I don’t have any information about the two men in the photo. However, I did look up the ads for more information.
I researched “Jeeps! I’d rather have a milk-nickel” which is a chocolate ice milk slogan. The ad was in place from 1934 to 1941. The dates match the style of clothing and photo type.
I wonder if the two men were part of the benefit. Or if they were just posing in front of the signs for the photographer.

A Vacation?
The image did not have any identifying marks. Based on the clothing and type of image, I am placing the photo around the late 1940s.
I think the ladies are on vacation with a grandson. On the left, there looks like a monument.

A Street Scene
Does anyone recognize the street? There are some signs. But I cannot identify the area.
If you look to the right of the image, a sign hangs above a door with the words: John F. McCarthy Real Estate Insurance. I did a quick search but did not find a perfect match for location.
On the left side of the image, there are advertising signs for appliances, luggage, china, cutlery, etc. I am assuming this was a variety store.

Holding Hands
This photo was from another estate lot. The young group of children is posing for the photo. I am wondering if they are siblings or cousins.
Based on their clothing and the type of photo, I am guessing the image was taken before 1920.

Sisters? Best Friends?
This image is from a recent estate lot. I don’t have an exact date. I am guessing the time frame is mid to late 1930s. I base this on the style of clothing and the type of photo. They look happy posing in the backyard or flower garden together. I wonder if they were dressed up to go somewhere special.

Coming Home
I do not have any data on these images. I would like to believe this gentleman was coming home after serving his time in the service.
Or perhaps, he is home on leave to see his newborn baby. I have no way of knowing the real situation.
I put this photo around the late 1940s.

Soaking Up the Sun
I like this photo. It’s simple. A man and his dog sitting on a porch rail. I am envisioning a warm, sunny day.
I don’t have any information on this photo. After searching through the estate lot, I noticed he is in many photos with other people. I am assuming the others are family members.
Unfortunately, I do not have a date. But I am guessing the photo was taken in the 1940s.

Working the Field
As a farmer’s daughter, I cannot imagine working the fields with horses and hand tools. But I know that was the reality of farm work before tractors and other equipment were invented.
The photo shows two men clearing weeds or harvesting plants. I am not sure what they are holding. There is another gentleman in the background. He seems to be leading the team of horses.
I do not have any data on the photo.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
