Written on the back, "Leona & Bob and the Magil family. San Mateo 1952." Fascinating. The Magil family appear to be Latino.
All images in The New Found Photography are from my own private collection. I do not reblog or use any photos from any other source. All photos are either original prints or prints made from negatives in my collection. Remember, you can always click on an image to see it in a larger window.

Cowboy Burt
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.

Summertime Santa
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.
