Dressing up – 1909
This might not appeal to some “pc” viewers as the two children have clearly “blacked up” for the picture,
I gather from the comments on the reverse of the postcard that the Nurse’s uniform has also been worn as a costume.

I’m not sure just who the winners and looser were but there are some glum faces although the boy at the bottom looks as if he enjoyed himself
Nurse and child – 1912
The child, unnamed was 5 and a half on the 9th August 1912 when this picture was taken
About
My wife, bless her tells me that I am rapidly becoming, or perhaps that should read have become a “Grumpy old fart”, so what better forum to spread my doom, gloom and paranoia than WordPress. I also have a love of old pictures, postcards and Edwardian Actresses, in particular Miss Gabrielle Ray which I hope to share at regular intervals. As my collection has grown I have set up another blog which contains only pictures of Miss Ray. Gabrielle Ray Thank you for viewing and comments are welcome.
