No information. For some reason, I can't seem to decide on a decade or a country for this photo. And what's that thing in the upper right hand corner, where it should be sky? Any thoughts?

I love "stair step" photos, where the kids or whole family, are posed in order of height. I'm tempted to start a Group - but I'd MUCH rather someone else started one : ) Found photo in Ferrisburgh, Vermont.

And now these little boys are off to become the youngest members of Vintage Twins! Found photograph in Ferrisburgh, VT. I would happily reunite this with the family if contacted.

Sneaking in at the last minute once again. It's been a busy week. I have approximately ten million photographs of July 4th post 1990, and apparently zero before that. I managed to find this picture and one more (which I've promptly misplaced - grrr) in the later pages of the Michigan album, so I've posted it early. Hope you all had a good Fourth, fellow Americans, and happy end of the weekend to the rest of you!

"Some picture" is what's written on the back. That little note makes the photo about a hundred times better, in my eyes. : ) Uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of "people on rooftops". Found photo in Ferrisburgh, Vermont.

Uploaded for the vintage Photos Theme Park theme of "People playing musical instruments". As my husband says admiringly of this group, "Every week is like a coffee table book!" and I think he's particularly right this week! What a great bunch of photos! I found this one online.

An interesting find from the Warrensburg, NY town wide sales, 10/3/14 Not only sideways , but very unusually cropped in a diagonal! I've don't think I've seen one like it before. (Wrong - actually Elinor posted one in this group earlier, which I had commented on. Whoops! Well, apart from that one...) I'd say this is 1900 - 1905-ish. The imprint says: M. Obergassner Munchen Kaufingerstr. 14 (Liebfrauenpassage)

We can only hope that her heart was kinder than her appearance might suggest. Found photo in Warrensburg, NY, October 2014.

Lord knows why I felt compelled to put this title in French, as she belongs to the Michigan Album. But, hey, you could say the spirit moved me. : ) Uploaded for Vintage PhotoTheme Park theme of spooky/Halloween.
