Family Photo

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.

Until next time…peace

Farm Bureau Picnic-1951

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.

Happy Mother’s Day!

I believe this is a mom and new baby. I think, the baby is a boy. But I am not 100% certain. It’s hard to tell sometimes in older photos.

I have a lot of photos of this family. I believe the timeframe is the 1940s.

What do you think?

Once again…Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful moms out there.

Until next time…peace

Modeling Her Outfit

The lady is all smiles as she models her outfit. I wonder if she is going to a festival? Or if she is dressed up for a wedding or other special event.

Even though, I do not have any identifying information, I’m placing this image in the 1940s.

What do you think?

Until next time…peace

Full of Smiles

Like many of my photos that I purchase, I do not have any identifying marks or information on this image. I wonder if the lady is the little girl’s grandmother or great grandmother.

I looks to be a beautiful sunny day. They both are smiling for the camera.

Based on the clothing and style of print, I am placing the photo in the 1940s.

Until next time…peace

A Lady in the Long Coat

I do not have any information on the photo. The image is from another estate lot. From the style of clothing and the type of print, I am placing the image in the 1940s.

The woman appears to be either startled by the person capturing the photo or reluctant to have her picture taken.

What do you think?

Until next time…peace

A Sunny Day

The little girl is all dressed up. Perhaps, she’s going to church or off to visit someone. From the style of clothing, I am placing this photo in the late 1940s.

Like most of my images, I do not have any further information.

I absolutely love the little suitcase and stuffed elephant in the photo. I am positive they are the little one’s prized possessions.

What do you think?

Until next time…peace

Holding Hands

LIke many of my photos, I do not have any information. I love this image of the couple holding hands and walking toward the dock. I am assuming they are on vacation.

There are two “Live Bait” signs in the image. The sign on the right has the most information. It reads Reserved Customers-Sea Breeze-Ice Cold Soft Drinks-Beer-Groceries.

My Google search, placed the Seabreeze in Florida in the 1940s. I cannot guarantee it’s the same Seabreeze. But the date is where I would have placed the photo.

What do you think?

Until next time…peace
