Hello everyone, and Happy Halloween to you!
This year it has been a bit difficult to feel the Halloween spirit. October, instead of acting like October, has seemed more like summer: not that I generally mind warm weather, but bright, sunny, and even hot days here in October is a bit unusual; at least, when it involves almost the entire month. It is only today, Halloween, that it is actually feeling a bit normal.
In any event, I'd like to offer a few classic Halloween photos from times past to enhance the spirit on our favorite holiday.
Now, the above photo looks quite old; and, according to the information accompanying it, dates back to the years 1900 to 1920. This one comes from a postcard, and most definitely captures that long time ago feel.
What's there not to love about a witch and her feline familiar flying on a broomstick in the skies above a small rural village? This one also dates back to the early 1900s.
I find the above image a bit unusual as it seems to harken back to a time before Jack O' Lanterns were carved out of pumpkins. I could be wrong about that, but I like it anyway.
Finally, here's a lovely young witch embracing the moment--and her Jack O' Lantern! I can't help but wonder what's going through Jack's mind here.
Well folks, that's it for this year's vintage Halloween image display. A Happy All Hallows Eve to all!
