Woman's Photo on a Colorful Celluloid Plaque, ca. 1927

Woman's Photo on a Colorful Celluloid Plaque, ca. 1927
Celluloid medallions and plaques like this were popular during the early part of the twentieth century. The design on this colorful plaque is dated 1927.

For additional examples, see my small album of Celluloid Photographic Medallions (including the two below) or head over to Flickr to take a look at the George Eastman House's collection of Celluloid Medallions & Buttons.
