5 Antique Glass Plate Negatives (5\" x 7\") Circa 1910-1920 Fashion & Architecture For Sale

Beautiful, cohesive lot of five (5) original antique silver gelatin dry plate glass negatives, measuring approximately 5\" x 7\". This collection offers an incredible snapshot of early 20th-century American life, showcasing striking social history, period fashion, and domestic architecture. These were in a collection held by my grandfather who lived in Agawam, Massachusetts. He was born and raised in Brockton, Massachusetts and these are most likely family photos at their house in Brockton (unverified).
📸 What is Included in the Lot:*The Homestead: A beautifully detailed, crisp architectural shot of a classic early 1900s Craftsman-style house with a prominent porch and manicured yard.* The Women on the Porch: A crisp duo portrait of two women standing by the brick-and-wood porch pillars, showcasing excellent examples of late 1910s/1920s fashion, including a dropped-waist dress, unique belt, and historical footwear.* The Porch Portrait: A beautiful solitary portrait of a woman seated on the edge of the wood porch, looking toward the camera.* Mother & Child: A touching portrait of a mother seated outdoors on stone steps with a young toddler in an ornate historical bonnet and dress.* The Winter Coat Portrait: A fascinating, well-exposed portrait of a woman standing outdoors against a brick wall building, wearing a heavy, fur-collared winter coat and an ornate feathered hat.
