Romayne, aged 10?

Romayne.jpgI’m not sure how old she is in this photo, but this is my grandmother. She was born in 1916 and grew up outside Philadephia and in New Jersey.
Sometimes I wish I had my costume reference books with me. I can’t date the picture from the clothing, because although the big collar with plaid trim is from the 20s, its quite possibly a hand-me-down. Romayne was second youngest in a family of 14!
Thanks, Mom, for finding this photo and scanning it.
