Sailor close-up portrait snapshot. 1940’s. Private collection.

Another photogenic sailor, with the handy comb in the breast pocket -you know he had just used for this shot- and a cap atop his blonde head that has definitely seen better days!

Although it may seem that way, I don’t specifically look to collect sailors. But this is a nice close-up, ladies and gentlemen.


The kiss

Caught! Private Collection

An endearing sepia photo of a couple caught kissing on a rainy evening. The man is wearing a trench coat and his woman a scarf over the head. This was taken in the 1940s, most likely.
