Photo Friday: Happy Fourth of July! Edition (1900's-1940's)

Good afternoon! 

I'm sorry I missed you guys this morning, I was out with my pappy at every holiday-weekend estate sale I could get to! We had a whale of a time and I got a trunkful of crazy things to show you on Monday, but you know I wouldn't let Friday pass without some vintage photos! I wanted to use my regular hunting ground of flickriver but danged if the well didn't run dry on "vintage patriotic photos" that weren't pictures of leggy, gorgeous pin up girls à la Ann Miller...instead, I went to Ebay and had a BALL looking at old pictures. I actually would have had this finished about forty minutes earlier in the afternoon if it wasn't for the "Oh, just one more page" of vintage photo perusing I was doing. I'm just a naked id today, I suppose, haha, but isn't that my American freedom! :)

Anyway, all these pictures are available for sale, so if you can't live without some of these gorgeous people, from the Victorian era on into the 1940's, draped in all the patriotic trappings the holiday requires, click on the caption link to support these vintage photo sellers on Ebay. I owe them my gratitude if not a couple bucks of purchasing power for the lovely look-see they gave me for Independence Day.

Have a great Fourth and I will see you guys right back here on Monday for more 100% American-made vintage blogging product. Take care, and U!S!A! Talk to you then.
