Mustache Club

Please welcome the newest member of the mustache and beard club, an anonymous man from Massachusetts. It's dated 1890 on the back, and the photo was taken in the studio of Henry S. Allen in Winchendon, Mass. Stay classy, sir.

Thanks for visiting Artful Geographic!

I love the way that old photos, postcards and letters capture a moment in history. Sometimes this moment is profound, a Presidential Inauguration or a parade down city streets lined with thousands. Other times the image seems mundane, like a family sitting on their front porch, or a factory lying abandoned. Both types of images fascinate me in a way I can't explain. They call for research, they beckon to our imaginations. This blog aims to explore how vintage and antique ephemera can inspire, entertain, and engage us in ways we didn't know possible.
