    Amazing that they were still smiling. :) -- Seen in your 1930s-40s in Color set. (?)

    I am wondering/pondering the same thing. Why?

    I love that they always kept their morale up even though they were being held in camps like prisoners. They managed to continue living as if they would outside of those camp walls.

    Smiling politely at the camera, with a dignity all their own. What happened to the Japanese internees was really shameful.
  • Konrad Aderer said:
    If you see lots of internment photos and films, as I have, the incarcerees usually look happy. These were their family photos, not conscious documentation of the injustice they were living under. muI think the daily life they built in the camps, which was filled with a lot of pretty "normal" activities like employment and pastimes, didn't leave much time for sitting around and looking miserable over the hardships and fundamental betrayal dealt them by the U.S. government. Also, photography by incarcerees was officially banned in the camps though the restriction was eventually relaxed. This undoubtedly caused a lot of negative sights to be hidden from cameras. I've read that Dorothea Lange took a lot of photos that revealed the harsh realities of the internment camps, but I haven't found them online yet -- hopefully they'll be available soon.

Pinafores, hoops, skipping ropes and peelers

    All the children fully shod and two restaurants!
    The RIC man sports the new cap, which limits the date range.
    Looks circa 1900

    Suck Diesel The street falling away behind them probably leads down to the sea so that might explain the restaurants but every child well shod is somewhat at odds with the other dress,

    Many of the children are holding satchels. Perhaps a school outing? I seem to remember that the WR&S pics are all 1900 to 1905 or some similar range. There was never a railway, and we are before the motor bus, so the children are likely local? But there were passenger steamers running to Moville, the children could be from Derry on a trip.
