International Picnic Day

Since today is International Picnic Day, I thought I would share this image. I am placing this photo in the late 1940s.

There was no information on the photo. I am guessing from the style of clothes and photo type.

Do you like picnics? I am wondering if she isn’t camping or on a road trip. There’s coffee of the table. The picnic basket appears to be full.

A Couple and Their Dog

I actually have a lot of photos of this couple. Unfortunately, none of the images have any identifying marks.

Since they are posing out front on a porch, I am wondering if they bought a new home.

From their style of clothing and the type of image, I place this photo in the early 1940s.

Until next time…peace

Outdoor Picnic-August 1968

I pulled this image from a slide that was dated August 1968. I purchased these slides as an estate lot. The owners must have traveled a lot. I am loving all the photos from different places around the world. If the locations still exist, I am adding them to my bucket list.

There are photos of couples in front of these cabins. Since this photo was taken in August. I wonder if this isn’t a farewell to summer picnic? The people in the other cabin could be coming together for one last summer picnic.

October 1967

This is another image from a slide which was part of an auction lot. The couple must have spent several days in Canada. First there was photo of The Expo ’67, now I am finding photos of other tourist spots.

From my research, I believe they were at Fort Henry National Historic Site which located in Kingston, Ontario.

May 1961

I took this image from a slide which was labeled May 1961. The group are full of smiles. I do not have any further information.

I recently purchased the slide as part of an estate lot on an auction site.

The people in the slides loved to travel. I am so excited to pull the images off them.

The gentlemen in the photo appear to be in hunting apparel which makes me think they are at a cabin.

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.

Until next time…peace

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.

What do you think?

Until next time…peace

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.

What do you think?

Until next time…peace
