Woman and two children, 1921

What it is:
Real photo post card measuring slightly less than 3.5 x 5.5 inches.
What I know about it:
Written on the back in pencil are June 1921 and Mrs. Will Valen. [The name is written in the address area. I don’t know if it’s the name of the intended recipient, or if it identifies somebody in the photo.] The paper manufacturer’s markings [AZO, two triangles pointing up, two pointing down] narrow the date range to 1918-1930, which backs up the handwritten date.
Comments:
Every time I look at this photo, my eyes are drawn immediately to the charming woman and the adorable children. (Her children, shall we assume? A boy and a girl?) So it was a while before I even noticed the rather outlandish chair.

Very nice photo . They all seems relaxed , and little girl with her nice dress is even looking as she will burst into laugh any moment…..
I agree, they all look like they are fun people having a good time.
Precious! You have such great pics in your collection. Thank you as always for sharing.
Thank you for saying so! It means a lot to hear things like that.
She didn’t have children – she cloned herself 😉
Ha ha!
Love the expression on the boy’s face!
