Sentimental Sunday - Two 1900's Women in Stylish Hats


This dark graphite colored photograph features two stylish women wearing dark suits, white blouses and each wearing a hat of an entirely different style.  The woman on the left is wearing a hat which is adorned with fabric bows.  The one on the right sports a hat  that is wider and lower in style and has feather plumes and some kind of decoration which I cannot decipher on the left.  It also has what appears to be a scarf hanging in the rear.  This photo which measures 4 3/8" x 3 1/4" was most likely taken in the early 1900's when this type of card became popular.  The subjects and the photographer are all unidentified.

  1. Apparently someone forgot to say "Watch the birdie" because they're looking in opposite directions. Still, I like the photo for the record of fashion.

  2. These old cabinet cards (and other old photos) are just wonderful...I always end up on this site for much longer than I intend because all the shots are so good. Great site!
