Trying to Smile

Old photo, circa 1910s – 1920s, white border.

Price:  $3.00

Old photo from about the 1910s or ‘1920s found in an antique store in California, of adorable child in a pull-type wicker stroller or cart, holding his or her stuffed horsie. It looks like this was taken in a city park, or perhaps on the front lawn of the child’s house. It had been removed from an old photo album. The caption on the left says “Trying to smile -” Part of the back has the old black photo album paper still glued to the photo. There were some marks in red showing, and I scraped off more of the black paper, only to find that this was just a number, looks like 3155. Was hoping for a name, date or location. Drat! Still, this is a beauty.
