It’s Thursday and you know what that means…#Throwback!
This week, we have an early 1900s postcard of two men wearing women’s hats, smoking pipes, and holding hands.
This image was taken by John Nelson and is published to Nebraska Memories by History Nebraska. John Nelson was born in Sweden in 1864. When he was seventeen years old, he came to Nebraska with his parents. His photographs tell the story of small town life.
Check out all of his photographs on the Nebraska Memories archive!
