A Family

Like many of the photos I purchase, there are no identifying marks. I assume the image is from a family gathering, but personally, I cannot tell if the family photo depicts a group of siblings or a mother and father with their children.

When you look at the photo, what do you see?

Until next time…peace

3 Brothers

I admit, I do not know if these children were actually brothers. But it reminds me of the photos my aunts would take on holidays. They would gather each group of siblings for photos.

Unfortunately, the image did not have any identifying marks. I am guessing, the photo was taken in the early 1950s.

I absolutely love the artwork in the background. The image is of a young girl holding puppies. I need to see if I can find a print.

Generations

This image has no identifying marks. I am calling it, “Generations”. In my opinion, the people in the photo resemble a mother, two daughters, and their children.

The mother appears to be wearing black. Perhaps, the photo was taken after her husband’s funeral. Or maybe the outfit is actually a dark blue, the photo could be after a church service or other family gathering.

What do you think?

A Family in 1929

Another image that I cleaned up from an estate sale. I would love to know the stained glass window’s colors on the image’s right-hand side.

This photo does have a date, October 1929. The style of clothing matches the date too.

In my opinion, I think the photo is a couple and their child is holding grandma’s hand.

Boys Holding Hats

I really like this picture. I can hear their mother saying, “Take off those hats”. Of course, I am only guessing. Like many of my photos, I do not have any information.

The boys are dressed in their “Sunday best, ” making me think they are headed to church. Or maybe they are heading to a church social, wedding, or other formal event.

Lady in Front of the House

I am assuming the lady is posing in front of her house. Perhaps, the house was a new purchase. I can see other houses reflecting in her windows which leads to me to believe the house was in the suburbs. Another scenario, the house may be part of military housing. The photo was in an estate lot with other military photos.

I do have a little information on this image. The back of the photo is stamped with Brown Photo Service, Minneapolis, Minnesota, Sept. 11, 1942.

Going on a Picnic

I honestly do not if the couple in the photograph are going on a picnic. But I love the big picnic basket the gentleman is holding. They are in dress clothes. The couple may be attending a church social or reunion.

I do not have any details of this image.

Vintage Photo: Old Cars

I just love this photo. My curious side wishes I had more information. The image was part of an estate sale which did not have any details on the photos.

I cleaned the photo up to the best of my abilities. Do you think this was a car club? Church? Revival meeting? Reunion? I have so many guesses but no answers.

Let me know what you think!

Until next time…peace

Tillie — A Lady by the Window

The image was part of an estate sale. Written in faded pencil, the only identifying mark on the photo is the name, “Tillie” which is on the front of the print.

I would like to believe that is her name. She is sitting perfectly in front of the window. The image is definitely a studio print. But I do not have any further information.

The lady sitting by the window is adorned with a captivating piece of jewelry, delicately hanging from her neck. Its color, like a hidden secret, remains elusive. Perhaps it was a necklace, or maybe a mysterious locket.

I also noticed a ring gracing her left hand, but its significance remains yet a mystery like the entire image. Was it a symbol of love, a token of commitment, or something else entirely? Like many of the images I view, I am left with more questions than answers.

What do you see when you view the image?

Woman with the White Hat

I can’t help but confess, that certain photographs captivate my imagination entirely. And this particular image is undeniably one of them—an enigma waiting to be unraveled before our curious eyes.

What is the story behind this captivating image? Where exactly was this beautiful photo taken? And what could she possibly be doing in this picturesque location? Is she perhaps on a well-deserved vacation or is she involved in building a new home? The possibilities are endless!

What do you think when you look at the image? Do you notice any clues that suggest the season or location where it was taken? Due to the muddy landscape, I am guessing, the photo was taken in the Spring time. What do you think?

Until next time…peace
