A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of curtains.

This 1906 portrait shows the "Mixed Ale Quartet." Four young men in suits sit in chairs with striped slipcovers. A patterned carpet rests at their feet, and lace curtains hang behind them. The men posed playfully for the picture, each wearing a humorous tag: "Fed with a Spoon," "Girls Wanted," or "Not Married." From left to right:

-- R. J. Ried wears a "Fed with a Spoon" tag.
-- J. J. Grace has his mouth wide open and pretends to sing. He wears a "Girls Wanted" tag.
-- J. J. Hallihan wears a "Not Married" tag and holds a small "Xaverians" sign. This sign suggests a connection to a school run by the Xaverian Brothers, a Catholic religious institute.
-- The Great What Is It (as he's named in the list) wears a "Fed with a Spoon" tag. He holds a folding ruler shaped like the number 4. The phrase "Sad but true" is written next to an arrow pointing at him.

This is a real photo postcard with an undivided back. It’s addressed to Mrs. Adelaide M. Scott, Arcadia, Yarmouth County, Nova Scotia. The card bears an initial postmark from Brooklyn, N.Y., Station L, on November 6, 1906, and a second one added in Arcadia, on November 7.
