After our record-setting temperatures this past Thursday I thought it was only right to find a photograph about being outside and enjoying the weather. I love this shot but I can only assume either the weather was a bit colder or fashion was a bit more layered. Maybe a valued reader knows more about the citizens of 1905 Detroit.
Take a look at the photograph entitled “Play Date: 1905“:
Detroit circa 1905. “Children’s playground at Belle Isle Park.” 8×10 inch dry plate glass negative, Detroit Publishing Company.
