A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of
holding a doll.
Notation on photo: "C. C. Kuhn. Photo.#716."
A photo of two girls -- one standing and one seated -- posed on a piece of carpet among some shrubbery and potted plants. C. C. Kuhn (
Carl C. Kuhn, 1888-1948) was a well-known photographer who lived in Cashtown, Adams County, Pennsylvania, at the time he took this photo.
This is an unused real photo postcard with an Azo stamp box design (four corner triangles pointing up) on the other side, which suggests a date that may be as early as 1904 to 1918.
For a closer view of the girls and the doll, see a
cropped version of the photo. For a close-up of the doll and Kuhn's name on the photo, see an even
smaller detail.

Two serene girls surrounded by potted plants and the patterned rug that seems deliberately chosen to enhance the charm of the picture.
The probably beloved doll is the icing on the cake!
I like the way the photographer has cleverly added his name. : )
