Holding Hands

Posted on by Rebecca C.

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.

Anniversary Celebration

Posted on by Rebecca C.

The image is from an estate sale purchase. Unfortunately, there are no identifying marks on the photo.

In my opinion, the couple seems to be celebrating together. They each have gifts and the cake is the middle. So, I am guessing, they are celebrating an anniversary.

From their clothing to the style of photo, I place the image in the 1940s.

A Lady and her Dog

Posted on by Rebecca C.

The lady appears to be taking a break by leaning against the fence. Perhaps, they were out for a walk and needed a moment to rest. I think the dog is a Scottish Terrier but I am only guessing.

Based on her clothing, I am placing this image in the 1940s.

On the Back Porch

Posted on by Rebecca C.

I do not have any identifying marks on this photo. The three ladies look like they are taking a break. I base this on the young boy who is eating some bread or roll.

Perhaps, two of the women were out doing chores or collecting eggs. In the background, there appears to be a barn. There is also a pair of work gloves on the top step.

The third lady appears to be a visitor. But she resembles the other ladies. I am thinking they are all related.

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

Family from the Mid-1940s

Posted on by Rebecca C.

I am still sifting through the photos from an estate lot. This family is in a lot of the photos.

Unfortunately, there are no identifying marks on the images. From the hair styles and clothing, I am placing the photos in the mid-1940s range.

I wish I knew more about the people in the images. I am assuming they are all from one extended family group.

WWII Nurse

Posted on by Rebecca C.

I did a little research on this photo. According to google, the lady’s uniform is either Army Nurse Corp (ANC) or Women’s Army Corp (WAC). The uniform is from the WWII era or early 1940s. If anyone could verify this, I would appreciate it.

She is standing on the dock of a ship. Boat Dock Fire Sta. No. 2 is clearly visible in the background. Most likely the ship was a troop transport or a hospital ship.

Family Posing

Posted on by Rebecca C.

I think this image is an extended family posing after a dinner or church. I don’t have any further information on the picture.

From the clothing and type of photo, I am placing the time around the mid-1930s.

Brothers–August 1943

Posted on by Rebecca C.

This image is from another estate sale lot. In my opinion, the two young men look like brothers. I am basing this assumption on their facial features.

The photo does not contain any names. But the back is stamped with the Brown Photo Service, Minneapolis, Minnesota logo with the date August 28, 1943.

Either the young man in uniform is on leave or he has just joined the service. The date is only the processing date of the image.

I wonder if he returned home? The date corresponds with WWII.

Until next time…peace.

Happy New Year! I have more photographs to add to this blog in 2026! I am also working on transferring 8mm and 16mm films to digital.

A Lady and Her Duck

Posted on by Rebecca C.

I do not have information on the photo. The image is from a batch of photos that I purchased at an estate sale. I actually have numerous pictures of her and her family.

I am placing the image around the late 1940s. The chair looks old. Perhaps, the chair is located in a garden. She was taking a rest and talking to her duck.
