Four of Hearts: 1943
June 1943. Arlington, Virginia. "Girls entertaining their guests in one of the two card rooms at a residence for the women who work in the U.S. government for the duration of the war. More privacy is afforded here than in the main lounge." Ignoring the fact that the Card Room has Esther Bubley taking your picture for the Office of War Information. The sequel to our previous post after what seems to have been some rearranging of lamps and card players. View full size.
Entertaining their guests
What an excellent follow-up to the previous post! Hilarious that they both have the very same caption. And, if I may, where is the third couple? Oh, I really do hope there'll be more in this series.
Patriotic girls
Just doin' their part for the war effort by keeping up moral at home.
Cutting it close
Hard to tell if the one in bobby sox has one foot on the floor. If so, the sole isn't flat.
Strange! Young people away from home for the first time and in a reasonably private setting with an attractive and receptive member of the opposite sex are always most eager to obey rules ... or so I remember being.
But, then, my memory went south decades ago.
