Vernacular Photography
posted by Ookpik at 6:02 PM
I began my interest in vernacular photography by a chance acquisition of over 10,000 negatives dating from the late 1920's through the early 1970's. Luckily, I knew what I had was something more than "someone's old pictures." This cache of old images became the impetus for me to create two Photoblogs: Ookpik’s Negativity and Mystery Ships Of The Great Lakes. Ookpik’s Negativity contains photos that I would like to know more about while Mystery Ships Of The Great Lakes features photos of ships that I am trying to identify.

While hanging your wash out on the line is economical, or likely at the time this picture was taken a necessity, having a dirt yard probably caused the laundry to get a little dusty without ever being worn first! :)
(I know people with yards/driveways like this who wash their cars on them, the poor fools...)
