Some old photos found this weekend

I was shopping this weekend for things for my booth at Merchant Square. I went to an estate sale in Mesa and found these pictures. This picture was probably taken in the late 1800's. She has on the cutest plaid dress. And I love her high button shoes! Not to mention the lace from her petticoat showing at the hem of her dress. Too cute! I did edit this picture because there were red streaks on it. You can see a bit of it at the top of the photo. I cropped as close as I could to get rid of the red streaks.
These sisters had their picture taken one afternoon. This is a postcard and on the back is a note telling about the day and having their picture taken by Walter. They were down in the strawberry patch on a Sunday morning. The dog's name is Dingo and the girl on the left has three kittens in her lap. They also noted on the card for the reader to notice how they are dressed up.
This lady had her picture taken in her finery! I just love that hat and the fur coat she is wearing. Lots of pretty pins on the coat and her blouse. I am just sorry that I could not get the scratch on her face removed. I tried, but didn't have any success. Since I got my new computer I don't have Photoshop loaded on it. Can't find my disk to load it on the machine! It will turn up eventually!! Somewhere!!

All of these photos were uploaded to my Flickr account and you are welcome to use them. If you go to Flickr (see the link on the right side of the blog) you can download different sizes of the photos for your use.
