A future architect! Private Collection.
Easily the youngest sitter of my collection! I usually don’t collect this young but this gorgeous photograph grabbed me. I love this cabinet photo. It took a talented photographer to capture this toddler at the right moment and with an expression of intense focus!
Photographers of yesterday didn’t have the luxury of taking dozens of photographs to pick out the best one. This here was true artistry and this photo came out wonderfully. In fact, this is so well done it is easily postcard material. The photo is well protected too with two overlapping flaps. I’m guessing this was taken in the 1930s or 40s.
Photographer: Steward. Carthage, Missouri

My Dad used to be a photographer and I remember him saying that taking children was very difficult especially as you said they didn’t have the luxury of taking dozens of pictures to find that “one magic shot”
Poor kid, what a mullet, I remember them so well :-D
