What it is:
Real photo postcard trimmed down to a bit less than 3.5 x 4.5 inches.
What I know about it:
Undated and unidentified, but the paper manufacturer’s markings (AZO, four triangles pointing up) narrow the date range to 1904-1918.

I figured I’d better break up the monotony of child pictures by posting something from the other end of the age spectrum.

While this photo doesn’t answer that question, it at least provides another example.

Yep. She looks like she could plow the fields single-handed.
Neckties were very common for women during this period.
So I’m gathering. 🙂
