A propos de cet article

Oblong quarto measuring 10" x 7". Black cloth over flexible boards with two cut outs affixed to the cover. Contains 500 gelatin silver black and white or sepia toned photographs measuring between 0.5" x 0.5" and 6" x 8" with some captions. Small tears and chips on the pages with several detached from the spine but present, very good with fine photographs. A young man's scrapbook and photo album during his time living in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut between 1904 and 1915. The first page features three men captioned, "The 'Villan(sic)," "The Hero," and "The Comedian." These three men are seen throughout the album, especially the Villain and the Hero, as they are twin brothers. In one photograph there is a picture of both brothers with their younger sister sitting between them, "A rose between two thorns," captioned below. Most of the album features pictures of the young man spending time with friends, playing golf or tennis, driving his automobile, or playing the banjo. In several of the pictures he is seen working as a lifeguard and swimming or boating with his friends. Other photos show the interior and exterior of his family home near Sugar Loaf, New York. The book contains magazine and newspaper clippings as well as double exposure and hand cut photographs. The clippings range from cut outs of women and children, newspaper headers, small clips from articles, and poems. The young man had a pretty interesting life with several jobs and hobbies, one of which was his inclusions into the Royal Arch Masons, Chapter 265 with pamphlets tipped into the album. He also severed in a military band and later became a rifle ranger in Peekskill, New York and worked at the Orpheum Theatre in New York City. He worked as a lifeguard at the beaches and lakes near Rahway, New Jersey. And finally the album shows him settling in Stafford, Connecticut with his family and working at a car tire manufacturing shop. The oddest thing about the album is a few pages devoted to the women that the young man had some sort of romantic interest or activity with. He labels the pages as "Assorted Flavors" and "Ask the man who owns one" with over 50 women in total. Many of the photographs are posed, sometimes including himself with the women. He also has a couple pages devoted to several women he had longer relationships with, one of which is captioned, "A Safe and Sane Fourth" while another has a clipped poem about comfort next to one of the girl's pictures. On one page, he labels himself as "The Kiss Stealer," and is seen kissing a few different girls in each photo. An interesting scrapbook belonging to a young man from New York and detailing his life from 1904 through 1915, including his love interests, odd jobs, and misadventures.…
