Going to the beach...
This is an interesting mis-print vintage photo post card. The scene is probably a photo set up at a fair or a studio. I am not sure if the mis print was intentional. Were they leaving space for another photo? Or was it a mistake? Perhaps someone who knows old photos could weigh in here.
The couple looks like the last place they would go would be the beach! What do you think, what's their story?
Very interesting and mysterious. I don't have any bright ideas, but I love the ships in the background.
ReplyDeleteI think they went out with friends to the 'boardwalk' and everyone else was getting their portrait taken, so they had to do so as well. or else she has a headache from wearing such a huge heavy hat.
ReplyDeleteHeather has a good idea. I think they are here while the 'young folk' frolic on the beach and in the water.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the card was intended to be folded. And maybe the scene was the best on offer. Better that than sticking their heads through one of those boards showing them in bathing suits.
ReplyDeleteIt's so funny how the woman has the more "manly" pose while the man looks feminine!
ReplyDeleteSeeing as they are in front of that funny backdrop and an obvious setup scene, I think they were nowhere near a beach and this was at an amusement park. Just a fun shot of them out as a couple. Why it was only on half the card I have no clue.
