Birthday Party. Fun in the sun in Searcy AR. Arch St.

Birthday party in the sun typical fun day searcy ar

Remember days like this?  It is probably typical of parties held long ago.  All the kids are told to look this way for the picture but the sun is so bad on their eyes that they have to put the arm up.  Note all the shadows of the grownups looking on for the fantastic picture of the kids having a party.  


I believe this party was being held on Arch Street in Searcy AR.  It says that it is Anita Hart's party but we don't know which one was Anita.  (Perhaps she will tell us.)  Looks as if it had a slightly wide range of ages, too, for the festive occasion.  We can even see if the party-girl remembers who these kids were!

Wow.  I have some old photos from that era.  I suspect the cars in the background, are from a decade or so prior to the picture being taken.

I am not sure, Myrl.  The one who loaned the picture doesn't remember.

My guess this is Anita.

Probably 3 or 4. Year 1939 or 1940.

Don, Anita also thinks that it is she.
