That is incredible


This is an amazing photograph.

Upon reading about the photographer I discovered she died in 1990.


Great picture of a time gone by.


Might as well be Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer!!!


Would make a great book jacket illustration…wow!


It almost looks drawn or painted rather than photographed.


Oh my God, that is incredible. Looks like Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer as wee kids… Perfection. It’s so hard to believe there were times like that. It’s strange to see that the spontaneity of 60 years ago is what today’s artists are aiming for.


Reminds me of a Rockwell painting.


Gorgeous.


Priceless!


This photo makes me think the US changed less between the time Mark Twain wrote about (the mid- to late 1800s) and 1940 than between 1940 and today.
