| Unknown 1920s Newark NJ Bride |
This beautiful young bride from the 1920's had her photograph taken by Silver & Steinberg located at Springfield & 15th Aves. in Newark, NJ. She is wearing a white wedding gown with a scooped neck and sheer sleeves. I love her bridal cap with the Greek-like floral arrangement and the veil/headdress with the unusual trim along the edges. She is wearing a pearl necklace and is holding a large bouquet of red roses and white carnations. She seems to be very young, probably a teenager. I wish we could have seen a picture of her groom.
I found a few other pictures taken by the same studio, but had no luck finding any further information on the photographers. This photograph was placed and preserved in a decorative Art Deco style folder, which although a bit stained, has held up over the years and is still very attractive.

She does look so very young. A smile of a little kid with still some baby fat around the face. Almost looks as if she's playing dress-up.
ReplyDeleteShe looks very young..but happy! Lovely veil:)
ReplyDeleteA smile! And teeth! It must be a new era in wedding photography.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought too -that is a very young bride, but it's a beautiful picture.
