Description
This is an old pre-fifties photograph of my mother and her boyfriend at the Texas / New Mexico border. Back then some states had huge cement signs engraved with the state name like this. One of the interesting fads of the day was to get your picture taken with the sign to mark the passing of that particular road-trip for posterity. I remember doing this as late as the early 60s. I’m glad because it evokes pleasant memories of my childhood and relatives with whom those memories are shared, preserved in precious photographs like this one. Of course, I added the colored overlay for effect to this duplicated version.
