In the Window
Artist: Frank C. Kirk
The is one of the loveliest of selections from the antique album of scraps collected in the 1930's by a young girl from Ohio. I wonder what she would think if she knew her painstaking cuttings were becoming part of the Worldwide Web?
How wonderful to find a treasure like this! Bright and beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat reminds me of a scrapbook I kept during the 1940s and 50s...birthday cards with images like this one.
ReplyDeleteNow I'm thinking I've got to scrounge around in that old wicker trunk for that scrapbook!
Thanks for reminding me.
very nice photo.

ReplyDeleteShe wouldn't believe that there was such a contraption as a computer! It's so lovely, and bless that girl from Ohio for collecting such pretty things!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful - it's easy to see why she chose to clip and save it. ♥
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by my blog and leaving a wonderful story.
ReplyDeleteThis is a pretty painting and the girl who created the album could not easily comprehend the idea of blogs, I am sure.

Bonjour Coralie,
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. If she lived in today's world she would probably be blogging about her beautiful scrapbooks.
