A 1930’s Portrait

By C.E. Ryan

A high school portrait for the yearbook maybe? This is a 4″ x 6″ on thick paper with a blank back.

Ah, the 30’s…starting with the Great Depression and ending in war…I hope this dapper young gentleman survived those tumultuous times. The 30’s weren’t exactly the best decade to be coming of age.

This is another photo with a subject with great ‘attitude’. It is quite understated, but definitely there in his eyes.
