The Orange Kiss

A postcard published by Douno ‘Edition Photochrom’. To me the color makes it look like they were kissing on a warm and sunny early evening, right before dusk. A beautiful postcard added to the other tinted ones of the same genre I fell in love with.

Lovely card, they must have spent ages putting the waves into their hair lol my Nan used to have some curved hair clips that looked positively lethal, just like the last picture here http://snoodlebugvintage.blogspot.co.uk/2010/10/30s-hair-mervin-waveomatics-and.html

  Those hair clips look like bear traps! The things we’ll do for beauty. I can’t imagine sleeping in those. I can’t imagine that male model sleeping in those lol!
