Photo Number 1653

This is a snapshot from an antique shop someplace.  Sometimes I forget to mark a batch of photos.  I am trying to clear out an old batch of photos that was scanned several years ago.

Old lady and her house

A elderly lady standing outside her home.  It looks like she had a nice flower bed alongside her home.  The trim on the windows is a colonial style.

Thanks for stopping by.

Photo Number 1651

This is a Real Photo Postcard.  It is a AZO card from 1904 to 1918.  I am not sure which antique shop I purchased this postcard at.

A two story house with great trim (I would call it colonial trim) and a wonderful screen door.  Looks like an east of the Mississippi house to me…..maybe Ohio or Indiana.

Thanks for stopping by.

This is a Real Photo Postcard from the antique shop in Solway Minnesota.  The last few times we have been by there the old shop has been closed.  There used to be an elderly gentleman there always smoking a cigarette ready to dicker about prices.

Perhaps the church was brand new? The three men in the front on the left seem to have white collars different from the other men..perhaps they are the pastors?

Perhaps someone can translate?

Photo Number 1647

These are photos from a garage sale in Park Rapids Minnesota.  I think they were probably taken in the 1940’s or early 1950’s.
