1920′s Young Girl With Toys on the Porch; Shadows, Toys & Fashion
There is an awful lot going on in this photo including the neat shadows on the porch from the fence slats.
Is she a child? or a young woman?
Do you think the doll is kind of creepy looking?
Care to add your own caption?

There is something disquieting about this photo! Why would this young lady be holding a ball? and be all dressed up like this? And am I imagining that the doll looks a little like her!??? The shadows from the slats seem to enhance her “shadowy secrets”! Based on these ideas, I would use the caption:
Am I not a doll?

I agree with you the photo is kind of creepy, she looks like a young woman..the shadows certainly add to the overall effect of the photo. And I have no idea why she would be holding the ball that way.

I enjoy seeing vintage shadows. Looks as through she might be asking, What do I do this with apple?

I think she’s fairly young, perhaps 10 or 12? The doll looks typical, but I don’t think I would have wanted to play with it! Good shadows.

she is full of shadows head to toe. even the folds in her skirt. i imagine her to be a young women…mid-teens. everyone is over for dinner and they are about to play a game. or she is an only child and the doll and the ball are her entertainment for the moment…lovely post.

What a fantastic idea for a blog!
This is indeed a busy and odd picture( but hey is a hundred years and if some stranger is pawing through my own crazy family shots I am sure they will say pretty much the same thing)
I think that girl looks kinda creepy

No, I don’t think the doll is creepy, but I am wondering about that ball…

someone told me it looks like one of those fake bombs that you see in cartoons .. the only thing missing is the lit fuse/cord!!

Her outfit makes her seem young yet her face, makes her seem an adult. Yes I have always thought antique dolls are sort of creepy!
