Mother’s Day is almost here again and 2 years ago I did a blog post showcasing some great vintage images of mothers that I found. I decided to do a part 2 for this year (1920s-1950s photos), so please enjoy and Happy Mothers Day to all the mom’s out there (including mine)!

Vintage Mother’s Day – Part 2

Vintage Photos of Mothers & their Kids from the 1920’s to the 1950’s

1950s Photo: I love when I see images in colour, especially when you have images like the one below where the little girl is all in red. She really stands out in a sea of blah colours. Don’t you agree?

1940s Photo: Cute family alert! Don’t you just want to hug that little girl? I don’t know how her mom is keeping a straight face for the picture (Maybe it was take 500 and she just wanted it done).

1950s Photo: Reading time is very important for young children. I wonder what the book was?

1940s Photo: This image caught my eye because of the poor child that looks like it was forced into getting her photo taken with her mother. Mom looks so pretty, her child while also pretty does look like she is about to fall off the banister (gosh I hope she did not).

1940s Photo: Last but not least, I left the best image of all till last (at least I think so). 1940s Glamour and style from mother and daughter. Look at the little girls hat and the beautiful dress on her mother…Fantastic! I love everything about this photo.

  1. Absolutely gorgeous photos! I thought the little girl in red was my favorite…until I saw that stylish pair in the last picture. <3

    • I was kind of in the same boat as you and then just as I was ready to close out my blog post, I found the last image. I had to include those 2 lovely ladies, they were fantastic!
