Written on the back, "Commenc Aout 34." French for begins in August. Or at least, that's what Google Translate says. From what I understand, the French take off almost all of August for a national vacation. Did they do that in 1934? I know a few French people who live here in California, and they love dogs. Were the French dog crazy in 1934?
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.

The Family That Stares Together, Stays Together
I've mentioned this before. I didn't start this blog to share my found photography collection with the world; I started it because it was scattered all over the place and had become too large to easily view. Anyway, I found an old box of photos while cleaning out a closet and wasn't sure if I had already posted them. I have, after all, been at this for more than 15 years. So, I laid out a dozen or so of them on the table and went back and had a look at everything that's been posted. It took a while. The idea was that if my small sampling hadn't been added to The New Found Photography, I'd assume that none of them had. None of them had, so the good news is that I don't have to buy any more photos for at least a few months. And no, I don't think this trio is on something.
