Today's posting of an Orphan Photo is a sweet looking darling young child from St. Paul Minnesota. I bought this at an estate sale some years ago.
Photographer is S M Taylor of West 7th Street.
I think this is a young girl but with the short hair is hard to be sure. Dressed in a very nice dress with large lacy collar. Around the neck is a small cross.
What a doll. Sadly there is no name on the back to identify this young child. Take a look at the back to see how beautifully it is designed.

I am posting for the first time at Sepia Saturday.. You can visit others at http://sepiasaturday.blogspot.com/2010/11/sepia-saturday-week-48.html for more vintage photos.

Thanks Grace
Love the back of this CDV, such intricate detail.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet child! It's so sad that these photos get separated from the family. Detailing on the back is just gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty child! Probably a girl, but even that can't be known for sure.
ReplyDeleteShe is lovely. I can't help but wonder what became of her.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love your blog. I'll be back
I was going to guess that it's a boy, mostly because of the short hair left "plain" but who knows! The child has a very sweet countenance. The back of the card is so ornate! They don't do things like that these days. Welcome to Sepia Saturday.
ReplyDeleteHi Grace, it is a sweet child and a beautiful photo for Sepia Saturday. One wonders, who was this child, what was her name ( I think it's a girl) and did she have a happy life?
ReplyDeleteShe Has A Very Intelligent Face.Very Calm & Pretty.I Hope Life Was Good To Her.
ReplyDeleteCertainly is a lovely wee child and the back of the card is wonderful. Real art in itself.
ReplyDeleteThank you all for visiting for my first sepia saturday I really apperciate it.
ReplyDeleteIt is an interesting post. I know a lady who was an orphan pulled from another state and adopted by an Iowa couple. She never knew who her parents were.
