Today's curious photo find.

Farm anniversary? 4H club? Women's Aux? Little girl is dressed as Little Bo Peep?

 

There's serious local history in those pics, for sure! But will we ever know?

 

It's a pageant. Please post a close-up photograph of the studio name. Shouldn't be too hard to identify with that.

Midsommar ritual ?(joke)

 

My guess is Bo Peep gets locked inside the Wicker Man.

 

looks like a fall harvest ceremony..

 

Just a screen capture.
Hopefully, Tiquer accomodates us with a better photo of the studio name.
New York (state)?

Nice job Komo & Bluumz ! Not being able to read that was blumming me out.(joke).

 

White Studio, New York. How interesting. A theatrical photographer. 1903-1939. And this would be the 1920s. Here's access to the New York City Public Library's Digital Collection.

May Day Celebration?

 

This fellow appears to be the expert on White Studios. Given your photographs are so atypical of their work, he might be interested in seeing.

Given the Maypole, very likely. Here's the queen and her court.

Sorry, we were grocery shopping :/

 

I will ping him! Thanks!

EDIT: email sent

 

Not sure how it reads "White" but here are the stamps. The number is also written in pencil on the back.

 

And what the heck is a theatrical photographer?? Is that like a custodial engineer?
