Found Studio Portraits of Children – 1970-71

Is this you in these found studio portraits?

We’re back to the late mid-Century in this album of found photographs from Steenbergen in the south of The Netherlands. Last time going through this haul we focused on weddings. Now we look at studio portraits of children. The photos were taken by professional photographer Van Mechelenand in 1970 and 1971. And on many we can see the sitter’s name. If you’re in these – and out there – please get in touch. We’d love to hear from you.
