She is dressed in a long period dress with striped stockings and shoes, providing an excellent visual record of mid-1930s everyday fashion. The relaxed outdoor setting, nearby buildings, lawn, and roadway add further period character to the scene.
The handwritten “August 1935” date along the border is especially desirable, giving the photograph a firmly documented place within the Depression-era 1930s.
An appealing example of vernacular photography with crossover interest for collectors of 1930s photographs, women\'s fashion, Depression-era Americana, social history, vintage clothing, and everyday portraiture.
