    My father's mother died years before I was born so I only have these copies of some very cool pictures. All are marked 1924. The details are amazing. Can you imagine going to a party or carnival and dressing up for pictures? Completely fun.

      She must have tried every backdrop that they had in the studio! The "man in the moon" backdrops have a strong collector following.

      She presents an "I'm in charge"/ self reliant look in the first pose-- what do you know about her?

      She looks to have been a very interesting person!

      Thank you all for the loves. I am going to ask around if anyone has additional pictures. She obviously liked to be photographed and was very stylish.

      She's a knockout. Great family picture.
