Consulting Detectives

Thanks to two consulting detectives for delivering information about these two pictures from the Simmons Studio collection of negatives that were filed together.  They appear to be high school prom and graduation pictures.

Here's a graduating class, maybe College High School, standing at the entrance to some building.

Thanks to our other consulting detective, Lisa Irle, for finding a post card that gives a clue as to where this picture was taken:

If someone recognizes these pictures or has any additional information, it will be greatly appreciated.

  2. The first photo kind of throws me off a little. First thought is its the Prom Queen and her court. However, the little girl makes me think it might be bridesmaids and flower girl. It could also be a float for the homecoming parade.
