I am intrigued by the girl's hair in the first paragraph. I wonder how long she had to sit for a permanent!

I wish I could see more of the kerchief on the second gal. I would love to wear my kerchiefs more retro-y, instead of the usual tie at the back of the neck.

Jenn, click on "all sizes" and the photo enlarges, you can see the kerchief better!

That is part of the reason I love the photo. The kerchief!

, not another library archive of visual material! You're killing me here! The two you posted are SO beautiful.

I'm a collector of old postcards, and I love the collection of photochrome travel scenes. Thanks for the great link!

Mary Catherine:

We should meet and go over our collective library!

Though, a lot of mine is online/disk, I have picked up fabulous photographs, here and there!

WOW - great resource and its copyright free too! I wish I had known that when doing my book - there are many images showing variations on turbans for work...
