About this site:
I have been an avid collector of old photographs and documents for over 30 years. The photographs on this site are derived from material I have collected over the years. Some came from old family albums, some from material I bought at flea markets over the years, and some from government archives of public domain images, including the US Library of Congress, and the National Archives. We appreciate you visiting this blog, and hope you find it interesting.

Looks like they all have the same nose.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what the headlins were.
ReplyDeleteGrandpa, You got me thinking of what the headlines might be. The way they are dressed I'd say it's maybe Jan or Feb 1909, (maybe March). I looked up some headlines from around that time... "Columbia recognizes the independance of Panama", "The last US troops leave Cuba after being there since the Spanish-American war", "Einar Dessau uses a short wave radio transmitter, becoming the first radio broadcaster". Born in Jan and Feb 1909... Barry Goldwater, Victor Borge, Carmen Miranda, Dean Rusk, Max Baer, Hugh Beaumont. ( I jut picked out the names I recognized).
