  • Art Siegel said:
    The date on the negative (and the apparent construction going on in the photo) indicates that these photos are from the very earliest days at what was then called Camp Little Silver (and subsequently had many name changes), a Signal Corps training camp established on June 17, 1917 in Monmouth Park, NJ. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9501E5DB133AE433A...

    Photographer's initials (?) and date in upper left corner (reversed): SS 7/31/13
  • BobMeade said:
    Thanks to technogeo for the date. From the NYT of August 1, 1913: "LONG BRANCH, July 31. It was Governor's Day at the continuation of the Monmouth County Horse Show on the Hollywood Grounds this afternoon and the entry of the Chief Executive of the State, James F. Fielder, could not have been more timely ..." (ref. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9C00E4DD1730E233A... )
  • technogeo said:
    Nice research work, lifeasdaddy! This image is unusual because it shows a group of people from behind. Valuable reference material for anyone into clothing and fashion of this era.
  • BobMeade said:
    technogeo, you make a good point about the perspective. Like some of the others of the Long Branch Horse show there are taken from well behind the action and what to other photographers would be the main subject. Here for example, the main thing is the central reviewing or judgeing stand and the scoreboard - but they are mere background to the general crowd scene.

    technogeo and lifeasdaddy: Thanks for the additional information. We'll add it to the description next time we update the record.
