A photo of Helen Meyer at graduation, found at a vintage shop in Portland, Oregon on 8/29/15. I am guessing it may be some type of graduation because of the scroll on the stand. Picture postcard (unsent) with the name Helen Meyer penciled on the back. Looks like it was taken in the 1920s?
People in photo include: Helen Meyer
Wonderful photo. Thanks for rescuing it and posting it . Her face looks calm and innocent about what the future will bring. Great dress and accessories. Very classic period photo. I live in Dallas, Texas and am no relation, just a curious history researcher and photographer myself. [contact link]
