It looks like this one was cut down from a larger print. And it's still out of focus. With those haircuts, I'm guessing the 1920s. With the exception of the kid in the lower left, who is looking down, all appear to be little girls. Notice that he's wearing an Indian headdress with a single feather.
I'm in the Screen Actors Guild, and I get these things every awards season. I was going through some drawers, and I found some cards from different nominated movies. I was going to throw them away, but I figured, what the hell, they've got photos on them and there might be a few people out there who'd find them interesting. Nyad was released in 2023, so the QR codes on the back of the card are long dead. And, by the way, Nyad is a pretty good movie.
Written on the back, "Leona & Bob and the Magil family. San Mateo 1952." Fascinating. The Magil family appear to be Latino.
This is a make-good for my last post. That one was probably shot in 2024, written on the back of this one, "Burt about 1913." Before I became fascinated by photos from all eras, my collecting was mostly images that were at least 100 years old. This photo started as a real photo postcard that was cut down to a smaller size.
Another example of true found photography. I walked over the hill to Hollywood yesterday, and there this was, just lying on the street. It's a little weird to post a photo that is probably less than six months old, but then I tell myself that the 100-year-old snapshots that get posted were once less than six months old.
It's been a while. This is a really big collection of a traveling family's many vacations. Every time I post something I've got to take the album apart and then put it back together again. Needless to say, it's going to take some time. So, we're still in Mexico, and it's almost impossible to see it from the scan, but the middle photo is dated "JAN 74." As usual, I'm putting up the whole page to see positioning, and then a separate scan of each individual photo. The top image is a postcard labeled "Uxmal, the middle snapshot "Nunnery" and the bottom. "Rounded Pyramid." Click on the trips collection in labels to what's been posted.
