Pin the Tail on the Donkey
A tall photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park.
This blindfolded school marm stands tall next to her students as she takes a turn to pin the tail--you can see it dangling from her right hand--on the donkey (mouse over the scene above for a close-up view of the woman and the donkey). Or at least that was my initial thought when I saw this photograph.
I noticed, however, that the children seem to be wearing better clothes than they might on a regular school day, so perhaps it's a special school event. Or maybe they're Sunday school students dressed in their Sunday best. Or it could be that it's a birthday party.
Other interesting details: Only one boy is present. Another woman (teacher?) is standing in the background on the left. Some of the children are carrying advertising fans (the girl in the lower right-hand corner has one, but the image isn't sharp enough to determine the names or locations of the advertisers printed on the fan, unfortunately). An American flag is visible on the right.
