Throwback Thursday: Palm Reader Tent
Embrace the spooky and mysterious this #ThrowbackThursday Halloween!
This black and white photograph is on a postcard, dated around 1907-1917, picturing a palm reader’s tent at a fair. A sign on the tent reads: “Madam Seero: Temple of Palmistry”. Men and women stand around outside the tent and a woman in costume stands in the entry to the tent.
