VINTAGRAPH • WPA • WWII • YOU MEAN A WOMAN CAN OPEN IT?

Fourth of July, 1905

Another photo from my grandfather, this one taken in Clatskanie, Oregon, on July 4th, 1905. He'd helped to organize the volunteer fire department in this little logging town, and here they all are, dressed up for the Independence Day parade. My Aunt Hazel is seated on the box of the decorated hose wagon, dressed as a water sprite. My grandfather is in the back to her right, wearing a moustache and a white fedora. Aunt Hazel wrote on the back of this photo: "I was making such a mean face because I didn't want my baby sister Hannah in the photo with me." View full size.
