A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of hippies (certified or imitation).

Photographer: "[Arthur] Mason's Art Studio, Valley Falls, Kansas."

A nineteenth-century cabinet card photo of an unidentified man with a long beard. If he were alive today, perhaps his beard would have qualified him as a hippie or possibly a hipster.

For other hip longbeards, see Man with Beard, Topeka, Kansas, Rasputin and the Amorphous Enigma, and Benjamin Purnell, Founder of the House of David, Benton Harbor, Michigan.

Mourning Mask?

nobody@ipernity.com (Deborah Lundbech) — Mon, 09 Mar 2026 20:57:59 +0000

Deborah Lundbech has posted:

Some people believe that this type of “mask” surrounding the subject was only used for remembering the person after death. A card for mourners.
Other people disagree and believe they were just added as a decoration.
The print at the bottom names the studio, “Gilmore” with an address of 194 Front St. Worcester, Mass. Cabinet card.
See below for lovely back of card

Sepia Portrait c.1920s

Deborah Lundbech has posted:

This is an oversize portrait with no information other than the stamp on the bottom right hand side that has the studio's name and address:

269 B'Way B'klyn Broadway Studio

I love the subtle, lovely tones of this sepia photograph. Obviously a high quality professional studio.
I would guess this is c. mid 1920s.
The top corners have been cut.
Found photo.

My goal for Ipernity this year is to try to up my contributions to one a day.
I love being part of the Ipernity community (and have no plans to leave it) but I do miss the large community of vintage photograph fans on other sites, where I was inclined to comment and post more frequently.
I generally post once a week here (and treasure and deeply appreciate my fellow Vintage Photo Theme Park cohorts and fans!) but that amount of posting is not enough to put a dent in my large backlog of all kinds of photos. So I’m hoping to do a daily posting of “stuff” to get working on that, including vintage *and* family pre and post 1979, (the VPTP limits.)
Cheers, all!

Uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of: SEEING DOUBLE (a photo with two people or things that look the same)
For the week of: November 24 - November 30, 2025
Found photo but I forget where it was from.
Strangely, there is only one name on the back - which perhaps suggests these are not twins but cousins and only one of them is not to the recipient of the card.
On the back:
Julia 21/2 yrs old.
