Lollipop Beach: 1923

Lollipop Beach: 1923

May 28, 1923. "Potomac bathing beach." A 10 on the Fun-Meter, from the look of things. View full size. National Photo Company Collection glass negative.

Pendants

Anybody know why they are all (mostly) wearing some sort of pendants around their necks?

[Those are claim tags for the changing-room lockers. - Dave]

Potomac

Having lived next to the Potomac my whole life, seeing many kids in the river at once has been a rare event in my 51 years.

The Lollipop Kid

Whatever the photographer yelled to get everyone waving was not about to interfere with the enjoyment of that lip-smacking treat. Goodness, makes you want to rub your hands together in appreciation, what flavour do you suppose?

Happy Happy!!

Everyone seems to be having a fun day at the beach!
Timeless.....same scene in 1823 and I'm again in 2023 somewhere..
