I purchased this image from an estate sale. I don’t have any factual information. I did a Google search. The results suggests this is Pukapuka, formerly Danger Island in the Pacific Ocean.
The AI overview suggests this is a image from 1958.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
I am assuming this young lady was photographed for communion. I am placing the photo around the 1920s.
The photo does not have any identifying marks. The only clue is the name of the studio: Frank Harper Studio at 7719 Harper Ave.
Many of the other photos from this lot were from the Detroit area. There is a Harper Ave in Detroit. But I can only guess that this was the place of the studio.

This photo was part of an estate sale. Based on the style of clothing and the type of photos, I am guessing around 1930s.
To me, the image looks like a school photo. I would actually go so far to say, a private school. The children all seem to be the same age–preschool or kindergarten.

This is the cabinet photo. So, I am placing the date around the 1900s. I do not have any information on the photo. I wish I did. I would love to know the girls’ names.
The girls are very well dressed in the photo. They obviously come from a wealthy family.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
No matter the decade a family pet is always a welcomed companion for children. The kids seem to be dressed up and posing for the photographer.
I do not have any information on the photo. But I am guessing, the photo was taken in the late 1920s or early 1930s.
Did you have a family pet as a kid?
Until next time…peace
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.

Happy on a swing–I am assuming this is a mother and son. The photo was part of an estate sale purchase.
The little guy seems to be enjoying the swing. I am placing this photo in the late 1940s.
What do you think?
Until next time…peace
I do not have any information on this gentleman. The photo was part of an estate sale.
From the style of uniform and type of motorcycle, I am guessing the photo was taken in the mid-1940s.

I pulled these images from slides. I was surprised to find them in my recent estate sale purchase. The previous owner did a lot of traveling. Most of the slides are focused on the trips. I admit, I love seeing their adventures. And, my bucket list is getting a lot of great ideas.
But these slides were focused on the aftermath of a tornado in Clinton County, Michigan.
Each slide has handwriting on them. In pencil are the date, event, and location. The tornado took place in August 1946 in St. Johns, Michigan.
A couple of the slides had extra details like Rudy’s trailer.
The broken trees were on Clinton Ave. I found this interesting. My grandfather lived on Clinton Ave. for years.
There’s no further identifying information on the next three slides.
The sign in the rubble reads, welding. Perhaps, the name on the business sign is Gary.
A lot of people showed up to help.
The next two slides are labeled, “Aunt Nellie’s house”.
I am assuming the lady with the flowered dress is Aunt Nellie.
Tornadoes leave a path of debris and destruction. I am hoping no one was hurt in this event.
I am hoping someone out there can provide more information on this tornado. I did a little research but did not find a lot of information. If I come across my slides from this event, I will definitely post them.
Until next time…peace
I definitely can say this is a vintage photo. The little girl in the photo is me with my mom. I put this photo around 1972.
Happy Mother’s Day to the awesome moms out there!
Miss you mom!
Until next time…peace
