I hope you have the same reaction as I did when I saw this at a sale and just had to grab it. Such a charming photo of 5 boys in sailor suits, arranged from smallest to largest, in same pose.
This was probably done in around 1910 to 1930. In that time frame sailor outfits for children were popular formal wear. Also, this is done on older style photo paper when using roll film was just starting to be used.
This will make a nice addition to a nautical theme decor or to add in a homemade scrapbook, or patriotic theme.
This is not framed, ready for your adaptation. The paper does have some slight staining on edges, and there is a warp. The surface is clean, this will frame well.
From a smoke free home. Thank you for looking!
