(Digital Image. Photograph Privately Held By Cynthia Shenette. Photograph and Text, Copyright (c) 2012 Cynthia Shenette) Here is a lovely young lady in her beach costume. I don't know who she is, but I do know she was a friend or relative of my grandmother, Antonina (Bulak) Szerejko. She was probably from Worcester, MA and a member of Worcester's Polish immigrant community. I don't know exactly when the photo was taken, but I suspect about 1918 or 1919 given hints I have from other photos in my collection. Notice the high breakwater in the background. Does that look familiar to any of my New England Geneablogger friends?
If you recognize this bathing beauty or can place the location of photo please let me know. I'd love to hear from you!
I sure bet those stockings were comfortable when wet...
