Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Social Documentary Photography & events, and we'd love to have your photo added to the group.

I like the way this scene is observed by the photographer. He is an outsider and obviously keeps his distance but the distance is physical, not emotional. What also fascinates me, is the backdrop of floating letters on the stage truck 'canvas'.

I love the little kid playing nearby, unaware that these women were scorned by society.

What I find interesting is how looking at this photo, if you were not given the context, you might think it has been taken last week. Unlike most of the photos from this era, there clothes are more like what we where today. Leather Jacket, jeans, even the 'girls' outfit is reminiscent of somethig I could or have seen girls whearing today.

This is such a nostalgic photo and conjures up a time of innocence and fun.

Pour la petite histoire: Jack Delano faisait parti de la Section photographique de la Farm Security Administration: les photos devant révéler les conditions de vie et de travail des américains ruraux. En lien une bio (française évidemment): fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Delano Les grandes roues sont bien les attractions les plus indémodables qui soient!

Thank you for reading the signs for the rest of us!

I love American Fairs, especially ones from this time period.

I wonder how many of the boys in the picture served in WWII

Considering most of them look like they're about twelve, and the picture was taken in 1941, my guess is zero.

hahaha!- oc man got punk'd!
