    Other Bain/LOC photos of guests at a costume party in New York City (the lacy backdrop in all seven photos is the same):

    Wystan It is likely that two major American illustrators were present at this costume party. My blog post about it is here: attemptedbloggery.blogspot.com/2013/06/rea-irvin-in-costu...

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Jewish People and History - Ancient and Modern, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

    Does anyone know what a "Jewish New Year Parade" is? As far as I know there is no such thing, and a google search got me nowhere (except back here)! Maybe they mean Tashlikh or maybe Jews at a parade on 1 January!?
  • Helene Smith said:
    i have never heard of this before, either... very curious... i will do some hunting when i can, too...
  • Ari Hahn said:
    Probably a misnomer. The photographer or person cataloging it noted many people dressed up and walking in the same direction (to the synagogue) and called it a parade.
  • Lanterna said:
    Building is too windowed for a warehouse - maybe a factory or even a school. There's a wall plaque just before the right border; maybe with sufficient resolution it could be read. Agree that 'parade' is misnomer/misinterpretation, but Sept 12, 1912 was indeed the beginning of Rosh Hashonah. They must have been on the way to services..

    Costume Party, New York City, January, 1914. These probably were celebrites of the New York arts community. Mrs. J. M. Flagg, for example, would be the wife of the artist James Montgomery Flagg, who is remembered now as the delineator of an iconic portrait of "Uncle Sam," in a WWI-era recruiting poster (often parodied) in which Sam points a finger at the viewer while declaring "I WANT YOU / FOR U. S. ARMY". (A Navy version also appeared). www.flickr.com/photos/45646416@N08/4184565441/ Numerous Bain/LOC photos of James Mongomery Flagg have been posted to Flickr. Here's a specimen:

    given the J.M. Flagg reference, I'm figuring H.G. Dart is artist, cartoonist and illustrator Harry Grant Dart (1869-1938). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Grant_Dart Dart's wife, Luella, died in 1928 select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=FA0712FA385B167A...

    Thanks artolog: You are right that given the context of this image, that the artist Harry Grant Art could be depicted. I was unable to find a confirming photograph of him however, so we will add his name with "probably" to the description.
