Description:
Approximately 75 original snapshot photographs and one period photo postcard. Various sizes, 1x1" to 4½ x3½ ", mounted to the leaves of a period photo album, overall 5½ x8".
Wonderful early 20th century album of an African-American family, with posed photos, candid shots, farms, fields, family, friends. Captioned in white ink on the pages of the album with nick-names, brief comments, etc. The name Susie Mae Baird appears in the same white ink on the first leaf of the album and the only hint as to location is a photo postcard showing the Calvary Baptist Church of Coffeyville, Kansas.
Condition
Album worn, some wrinkling and creasing to photos, a few captioned spaces with photos now lacking; very good.
