There are so many fabulous photos on Shorpy, but once in a while one really stands out. This is one.

I am amazed almost every day by the quality - and qualities - of the photographs. This one reminds me so much of Andrew Wyeth.

Proud face the girl has, I like the picture!

 

The ironing is delicious!
