Party at 611 Tenth, 1955

[Strangler Lewis]

Often when I see old photos, expecially ones from the nineteenth century, I find it hard to picture the person as someone whose face I might expect to see in the modern world. Every once in a while, though, a contemporary looking face stands out, and I think, "She looks like she might be fun to get to know." Except, of course, she's very, very dead.
