Young Man in Bucket Hat with Palm Trees and Folding Camera, c. 1940s-50s Snapshot travel soap and towels and so of course alsoThis feels so mid century southern California to me, and the light with that "golden hour" quality I can only imagine our young man here about to head to the beach and photograph the surfers. I love a portrait like this, lots packed into it is an effortless sort of way. 3 1 2" x 2 1 2". Very good condition. My first photo makes it appear as though a little yellowing around the edges, but really no evident toning at all.
