Small Scholar at the Harrisburg Library, mid-1940s

Harrisburg Public Library, Front St.

I look rather studious here (which I wasn't at this point unless I was studying comics, movie books & other magazines.....).

 

Friends have wondered what the book I'm holding was & so do I.

 

I also love my "winter" ensemble & remember so well this entrance to the basement children's department on Front St. at the Harrisburg Public Library. 

 

You can see part of the entrance sign behind my head and above the door.

 

The Susquehanna river across Front was probably frozen when this was taken.

 

 

 

 

 

I plan to make this the first of a series of Once Upon A Wintertime/Holiday vintage Harrisburg photographs...........
