Tattered and Lost: Cakes, Picnics, and Watermelon

By Tattered and Lost

Collecting vintage photographs starts out innocent enough with a few snapshots here and there, but at some point it becomes a bit more obsessive and you find yourself longing for the next image that makes you laugh or ponder the irrefutable confusion of being human. Eventually you start to see a pattern, a particular type of image strikes your fancy such as the sharing of food, and next thing you know you're collecting specific categories. This book, Tattered and Lost: Cakes, Picnics, and Watermelon shows the quirky world of sharing food from the 1890s to the 1970s in the United States. Sit back and enjoy watching people cut cakes (some people do it with such style!), go on picnics without your relatives, and watch people eat watermelon. Yes, eat watermelon. An odd category for sure, but one sure to make you smile. A vernacular food snapshot feast!
