I've collected a number of #FoundPhotographs over the years, always thinking I'm going to turn them into some kind of story or project, but in the end, I think reinterpreting them would be doing them an injustice. So I just post them as found. This was found along with numerous others at a vintage store in Jim Thorpe, PA.

I have no location, date, or any information, except that these four young women seem to be having a lovely time.

Can’t remember where or when I found this photo but this kid has hung out on the counter.
It’s a lovely photo and something about his smile is super genuine in that kid-type way.
Wish I knew who he was.

@tonypatti Throw that #FoundPhotographs or #FoundPhotos tag out there! That’s what’s searchable.

Another #FoundPhotographs I picked up in #JimThorpePA. Can't help but feel tremendous tenderness for these two young women. I hope they had good lives.

Any #FashionHistory experts, please feel free to weigh in with a guess on a date for this clothing.

I picked up several #FoundPhotographs in an antique shop in Jim Thorpe, PA, several years back with the idea of making up stories to go with them. Which thing I certainly could do. But as an amateur #historian, as a #FamilyHistory researcher, I can't help but wonder at the real stories in these pictures.

Wonder if any #FashionHistory buffs could help date this by styles?

On my desktop I keep running across this hypnotic photo of blue-eyed Fern Jackson, Miss Syracuse of 1925. Sometimes faces from the past just look incredibly modern to me – like she couldn't possibly have lived a century ago.
