About this piece

Lot of 4 original vintage photographs from 1960s women's events. Three are square color snapshots taken at a ballroom fashion show under a coffered ceiling with chandeliers: a model with a tall auburn updo in a pale green capelet suit, white gloves and pumps walking past a seated audience; a model in a pale A-line capelet dress on the runway; and a view over the audience's bouffants toward a model in a long dark cape. The fourth is a large black-and-white print of about eleven young women contestants wearing sashes and rosettes, seated on a stage beside a draped head table with a microphone, a US flag and ferns, with part of a banner reading Country. Sizes about 3.7 x 3.7 to 9.1 x 7.1 inches. Condition: color snapshots faded toward magenta or cyan, one blurred, one with a torn corner and foxing on the border; the large print is in good condition.

From a family photo album from Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania, purchased at auction in Canfield, Ohio.

Great period fashion and women's club or pageant material.
