Historic Costume Photographs of 1920's Bathing Beauty Venice Ca., Little Girl & Teddy Bear Valantine Ephemera. All the images are free for your clip art needs

  Today feels like an old photos day. It is cloudy and cold. Cold is relative depending on where you live! A much needed call to my Aunt Annette was the best way to start the day. She is in her early 80's and is in the many family photographs starting in 1927. My grandmother was born in 1903 and she kept a few small photo albums that document 1918-1923 plus some other pics.  It is funny how they dressed for the beach and for mountain treks. Many of the fashions worn by her and her friends are not very flattering! It is really a bygone era. The young men are in navy uniforms so I guess she had a beau or two that were sailors.

Now farther back in time to the Goody's Ladies Book
