Overview This is an exceptional real photo postcard capturing a large assembly of rural American men, women, and children. Whether an extended family, a group of farmhands, or a community gathering, the portrait is a striking piece of social history. Dressed in their everyday work clothes—overalls for the men and simple dresses and aprons for the women—the group pauses their labors to pose for the camera. The range of ages, from young boys to weathered old men, offers a poignant cross-section of a working community in the early 20th century. Front of Postcard The photograph features a large group of approximately twenty-one individuals posed in three rows outdoors in front of a plain clapboard building. The front row is composed mainly of men and boys sitting on the ground, most of them wearing overalls. The middle and back rows consist of standing men, women, and a few children. The attire is rustic and functional, with several of the men wearing work hats. The subjects' expressions are generally serious and direct, as was common for portraiture of the period.
