At The World's Fair
I went over 80,000 page views a couple of days ago and thought it was a good time to revisit some images from the early days of The New Found Photography. Nothing was written on any of these, but I was able to date them from the midget show visible in the background of the second photo. A bit of digging and I was able to place it at the 1939 New York World's Fair. Click on Worlds Fair in the labels section to bring up the original post if curious. And yes, I bought these photos because the lady is good looking. Hey, I've bought things for worse reasons.
Midget show ?
ReplyDeleteThere was a pic with midgets / dwarves / short people, 12 or 14 of them - wasn't it near this one with the lady in the peculiar dress ?
