This is a photo from the antique shop in Solway Minnesota.
A group of smiling children standing in the brush. Kind of a strange place to take a photograph..there is some kind of a line that runs through the photo. I double checked the photo it is not a crease.
Maybe it is a telephone line? Getting a telephone line and a telephone was a big deal! I will guess this photo is from around 1910 – 1915.
Thanks for stopping by. Do come again:)
It is a neat photo. It says a lot about the time as the shoes and clothes that they are wearing. I also noticed the light exposure changes from left to right. Maybe a developing error and not a camera error.
ReplyDeleteThey look pretty happy! I'd be happy about a telephone line too.
ReplyDeleteThat is a really curious placement. The one boy's face is obscured by the undergrowth. The trees are so bare - but they don't seem to be cold.
ReplyDeleteAt first I thought the wire might of been a fence wire... now I'm not sure!
