Woman in Five Poses with Hat, Magazine, and Parasol, ca. 1908

Woman in Five Poses with Hat, Magazine, and Parasol, ca. 1908
A photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park topic of photobooth photos (or any interesting head and shoulders studio portraits if you don't have any from photobooths).

A photo strip with portraits of a woman wearing a hat, reading a Collier's magazine, and holding a parasol, along with two photos without props. For easier viewing, I cropped and rearranged the photos into two rows (the parasol photo is repeated).

The Collier's magazine is the issue from September 1908. See my comparison of the original cover with the one the woman's holding.

Interesting series of portraits. I can't imagine what the experience of sitting for a photographer must have been then, especially for women. I wonder if she was happy with these.

She has a very severe face, I think. Perhaps her hair was coiled too tightly. : )
Great example of a fairly early photo booth series, though!
