He is dressed in a white shirt, dark shorts with a belt, knee high socks and strapped shoes.  The back reads: "3 1/2 yrs. Born - March 13th, 1929."; (3) a sepia toned image of a toddler (possibly a boy with the short haircut) in a long white ruffled dress and bowed strap shoes.  He is leaning one hand on a wicker chair in a room with a checkered floor and a decorative lead glass window.  The back indicates that the photo was taken at Electric Photo Studio in Grand Rapids, Michigan; and (4) a black and white oval  portrait image of a young boy and older girl.  The boy is wearing a suit jacket with a round pin and a striped tie.  The girl has on a white blouse with a shawl collar and a large white bow in her pulled back hair.  Both look at the camera and smile.  The back reads: "To Martha/Its very good of me but poor of Lysle."  Exact ages of the postcards are unknown.  These Vintage Photo Postcards of Children are in Very Good condition with some slight staining on the border of the fourth card.  Ideal for use in art projects.
