Faded Friends

 

I have a few more faded prints in the box, but I'm going to move on for a bit to other things.  I think, but I'm not sure, that at least some of this series come from the same source. 

Faded Ladies

   

Returning to the faded photos series.  I think youngish ladies, though the image is so faded I can't be sure.  

Faded Intense Stare

 

Continuing with this brief series of faded, old photos.   Anyway, I buy the occasional lot of photos, usually an envelope, where I want a couple of photos and end up with a few extras.  This is one of those extras, and like the next couple I'm going to publish, it was printed on cut up real photo postcard stock.  

Faded Rumfords

 

It looks like a faded picnic with a sign off to the right that says, "RUMFORD."  Did the Rumford clan reserve a table in the local park?  Probably.  

A Faded Couple

 

I buy a fair number of photos as lots.  I'll buy an envelope, usually to get two or three prints, and while many of them are interesting, I wouldn't buy them as a stand-alone purchase.  Anyway, I have a few faded prints that have been sitting in boxes, and not in the queue for publication.  What fascinates me about fading prints is the symbolism of people and history disappearing in plain sight.  

Faded Glamour

  

Well, it's the picture that's faded not the woman.  Very femme fatale.
