    fantastic action shot! Also: can you imagine playing tennis with a gigantic belt buckle digging into your abdomen?
  • Randy Reiss said:
    according to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._Open_Women's_Singles_c... Florence Sutton was the runner-up in the 1911 U.S. Open Women's SIngles competition. And in this article: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9905E6DA1E3EE233A... she won the 1911 National Lawn tennis Chamiponship in the Women's Singles division

    Carbonated-- a gigantic belt buckle digging into your abdomen, and an ankle length skirt. Yikes! At least she's not wearing high heels.

    i wonder how these women played tennis with such long skirts. how uncomfortable! i guess it doesn't matter though, because she is such a good tennis player.

Man in a sugar-cane field during harvest, vicinity of Rio Piedras? Puerto Rico (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Ricky Flores said:
    Rio Piedras is a town in Puerto Rico. Again not sure why the question mark after the town. Could it be that LOC is not sure it was taken there?
  • The Library of Congress said:
    rigglord, Glad you're enjoying the photos! Because the title does not appear in brackets, it is transcribed from an original source. Generally, a title is transcribed from the original picture, or from a photographer's logbook or negative jacket. If the picture carries no caption a title is devised from another source and displayed in brackets. Devised titles are written by Library staff, or they might come from a published book illustration or a former owner.

    And this one was used for the cover of "Tortilla Flat" by John Steinbeck, Penguin Modern Classics edition.

    I'm going to be talking about how Flickr relates to archives access in a few weeks - do you think putting this image on Flickr has helped laypeople find this image and use it for their needs, or has it just driven more users to ask for the actual photograph in the National Archives? Thanks.
  • The U.S. National Archives said:
    Hi photosharp, Thanks including the National Archives in your presentation. So far, anecdotally, we have not seen an increase in requests for reproductions of photographs since we joined the Flickr community. It seems that making photos available on Flickr has allowed the public and researchers to find images like this one of Nixon and Elvis and use them for their needs. Interestingly, althought Nixon and Elvis is the most requested photo at the National Archives, it is not the most viewed on our Flickr photostream. This photo of two women at U.S. Steel in oxygen masks has gotten almost three times as many views (3,064 compared to 1,087 views): www.flickr.com/photos/usnationalarchives/3660777810/. Good luck with your presentation! Thanks, Jill (U.S. National Archives)
