October 6, 1925. "West Philadelphia High School girls at the White House." National Photo Company Collection glass negative. View full size.
I live in West Philly. The demographics of the high school sure have changed.
It's the clothing, makeup, and lighting that makes them look old. If you look at their faces, imagine them with modern hair and stuff, they look about right.
I completely adore the cheeky sense of humor in this picture. I am guessing they already stopped at the National Zoo.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, they sure made 'em old back then.
