My Favorite Vintage 1930s to 1950s Images

I don’t think I can stress enough, how much I LOVE Vintage Images from the 1930s-1950s. Sometimes it’s just crowds of people or just a lone individual that catches my eye, but you can be sure that whatever I’m saving and sharing (with you!) they are a wonderful moment in time.

Now friends lets see what goodies I have found this month.

Vintage Photos 1930s – 1950s

1950s Photo. Cute and stylish kids alert! I love the contrast between the two friends. I wonder what the design is on the felt “Poodle” skirt? I see balloons I think…

Toronto recently hosted the Great Gatsby Garden Party, these ladies from 1920s Toronto would have been wonderful inspiration for that day. Those are some stunning 1920s dresses right out of Downton Abbey!

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: 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.
