VINTAGE ORPHAN PHOTO # 106 1900's Cabinet Family Photo HATS Included

Orphan Photo #106 is sadly not identified. No markings to tell us where they even lived. No names to tell us where they live.

What we do have is a young family pictured. Five men, two young women and a total of 7 children. Girls have matching hats. Do you think they have a nautical look? The boys have caps on. The lady on the right has a really plain hat that almost looks like a male hat.

Found this at a local auction recently and will be offered for sale on eBay soon for the cabinet family collector.

Thanks for stopping by, take a moment and look at my other vintage photos. Grace

BIRCHWOOD WISCONSIN 1929 BABY ERNEST Orphan Photo # 105

I am a sucker for old photos, I go to an auction, estate sale or antique store and I always have to check out the photos. I find it so sad that they are sitting some where other than a family photo album.
This old snapshot is of baby Ernest who is about 5 1/2 months old in the year 1929. Only identifying mark is written the year, first name and Birchwood Wisconsin.
Will put up for sale in my eBay store and hope that some one will want it because they collect or someone will recognize the people pictured and they will want to add to their family photo.
Till then it sits in my orphan photo album.

Thanks for taking a stop by Grace
