This photograph shows a young girl standing outside by some railings. She's wearing a knitted coat, hat, and scarf. The girl in the photo is Marion Pascoe. This photo is interesting because it's a simple, everyday moment from the past. The girl's clothing and the railings give us a glimpse of what life was like back then.
