Group of girls being sent home from McKinley High School for wearing “dungarees” and “slickers,” 1946, Chicago.
Look at that girl on the far right. $10 bet she’s the ringleader.

For nearly 30 years, the historic Hotel Charlevoix has sat vacant in downtown Detroit.
Most of the floors have remained a mystery because the owner removed the stairways. But with a bit of courage and muscle, we ascended the building and precarious fire escape, getting a rare glimpse of the interior.

1930’s Teen Delinquents
i.e. life role models
I’m just gonna reblog this again because it’s one of my favorite pictures ever.
That girl in the chair seems like such a badass I bet she was the leader of the crew.
I want to write about these girls.
@magpiewhale, I sense a sequel to your Girl Shots of Drexel.

Misao and Fukumaru. “We will never be apart.”
12 years ago, Japanese photographer, Miyoko Ihara (伊原 美代子) started to take photographs of her grandmother, Misao. Born in 1981 in Chiba (Japan), Miyoko Ihara has studied under Kenji Higuchi (樋口健二), after graduating from the Press Photography Course at the Nippon Photography Institute in 2002. Miyoko is also a member of The Photographic Society of Japan.”
“Under the sun, everyday is a good day. Another good day, Fukumaru”, Misao. Eight years ago, Misao found a odd-eyed kitten in the shed. She named the cat “Fukumaru” in hope that “God of fuku” (good fortune) comes and everything will be smoothed like a “maru” (circle)”.
“We’ll never be apart!”, says Misao to Fukumaru. Both of them live in a tiny world, with dignity, with mutual love. Still today, under the blue sky, Misao and Fukumaro work in the fields and in these natural surroundings, where they shine like the stars.”

“This set of images was the first to prove that a horse gallops with all four legs off the ground, a groundbreaking series for both motion studies and motion-picture projection.”
Relevant to the interests of several of my followers (horse and cinema fanciers alike).
