A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the monthly theme of free-for-all (submit as many vintage photos on any topic as you'd like each week in addition to—or instead of—a photo for the weekly topic). This also fits the previous theme of Halloween (costumes, masks, jack-o'-lanterns, decorations, ghosts, gravestones, or anything else spooky or scary) . A snapshot of a Halloween gathering in October 1971. In the middle of the table are two lighted candles and a honeycomb tissue owl centerpiece. One woman is holding a candy apple , and the woman to her right is wearing a party hat decorated with the silhouette of a witch. Images of black cats are visible on the cups and plates. See a cropped version of the photo for a better view of the table decorations and witch hat. For a second photo of the same scene taken from a different angle, see Halloween Get-Together with Owl and Black Cat Decorations, October 1971 .

A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of forks, knives, and/or spoons . This also fits the previous theme of Halloween (costumes, masks, jack-o'-lanterns, decorations, ghosts, gravestones, or anything else spooky or scary) . A snapshot of women gathered around a kitchen table decorated for Halloween in October 1971, as the date printed at the top of the photo indicates. The centerpiece is a honeycomb tissue owl, originally packaged as a "Dennison Halloween Owl, 10" Tall," as I was able to determine after a Google Images search. The pattern on the tablecloth shows an image of black cats as witches stirring the contents of cauldrons. There are also candles, plates, cups, spoons, and candy apples on the table. See a cropped version of the photo for a better view of the Halloween decorations. For another photo of the same scene from a different angle, see Halloween Get-Together with Owl Centerpiece and Witch Hat, October 1971 .

Someone's in the Kitchen

A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of appliances—refrigerators, stoves, washing machines, dishwashers, etc. A snapshot of a woman standing next to the stove in her kitchen. In front of her is a dinette set that looks like it might date to the 1950s. The graininess of the photo gives the furnishings a mottled appearance. For some other stoves, see Hooray! Let the Christmas Cooking Begin! and Cooking on the Regal Acorn .

Cooking on the Regal Acorn

A kitchen photo for the ABC Group (4/22/2017). An in the kitchen photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park. This real photo postcard (circa 1900s-1910s) shows two women cooking with pots and pans on a Regal Acorn Range (the "Regal Acorn" name is part of the elaborate design on the front of the stove, though it's difficult to see in the photo). The Regal Acorn was manufactured by Rathbone, Sard, & Co., of Albany, New York, which touted it in a 1907 newspaper advertisement as "A Marvel of Convenience" that had a new "Lift Up Top Plate" that allowed "broiling and toasting to be done so easily, cleanly, and perfectly that it makes all other stoves and ranges seem mere make-shifts by comparison."
