You are bidding on a
vintage image from my collection.
an original vintage photo
This exceptional original vintage 1924 snapshot originates directly from the personal archive of Lucille Lorraine Schoenfeld 1898 to 1971, a passionate young woman who dedicated her youth to the vibrant performance arts scene of the Roaring Twenties. While attending the historic Girls High School in San Francisco, California, Lucille immersed herself in a creative circle of friends who wrote original musicals and staged dramatic productions for local school and Jewish community performance groups.
Here we have a cross-dressing production with a woman dressed as a male cowboy complete with chaps, a guitar and Spanish theme, handwritten En Espana along the bottom border. The image captures a young woman identified as Lucille Schoenfeld, second from the right. Posing with her classmates in traditional masculine and feminine performance roles, this documented photograph offers an exceptional, highly rare piece of early lesbian interest, women's stage history, and gender expression.
