Lubbock, Texas

This is one of the treasures of my collection. This image is a an 8x10 contact print, mounted in a cardboard frame labelled, "Daniel, Lubbock." Daniel is the name of the photographer, not the subject. What a great image from the dust bowl era, made by a professional photographer. I'm taken by the young woman who looks away from the camera. An interesting composition.

Bicycle Betty

I bought a packet of negatives advertised as being farm scenes from the 1930's. This is the only image that I was able to print before the lab I was working at went under. The seller was from Iowa, though that doesn't mean that this picture was taken in Iowa. And no, I have no idea what this young ladies name was. Betty just goes well with bicycle.
