A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of shadow of the photographer.

Two kids pose for a picture as they sit on the steps of a house in "spring 1939," as written below the photo. It's a bright sunny day, and the shadow cast on the cracked sidewalk in the foreground likely belongs to the photographer.

The balloon in front of the kids is listed in a 1938 novelty catalog as a "Mickey Mouse Toss-Up Balloon" with the following description: "Made of Latex rubber. When inflated measures 26 inches. Packed in cellophane package, complete with heavy cardboard feet." The catalog also explained, "When tossed in the air [this type of balloon] will always land on its feet."
