Runners? Beautiful Antique RPPC of A Bit of a Motley Group of Young Men native peruvian in every way it is

in every way it is just right

must have been out of town

and some hand-drawn geometrical formations on the flip side

I would guess that paper was fairly recently removed and it is clear a new cardboard backing was added behind the drawing and a hanging ring added to the back of the frame

Well if one is hand-building a vessel anyway

Runners? Beautiful Antique RPPC of A Bit of a Motley Group of Young Men native peruvian in every way it isI presume the young men with handwritten numbers pinned to their chest here are runners, but I might guess what connects the somewhat mottly looking group as a whole is something else. Whatever the case, I love the mix of faces and postures and outfits here, and find the image very tender feeling and quite beautiful. Found in Pennsylvania, c. 1910s 20s I believe. 5 7 16 x 3 3 8". Small burn mark lower left corner and a bit to lower right corner too.
