Other versions Compare with Image:MetairieCemParasolsLongSkirts.jpg, by the same publisher, showing women's fashion at the start of the 20th century. Apparently the postcard company kept this view in stock for years, but by the 1920s the fashion was making it look dated-- so rather than shooting a fresh photo, they had an artist shorten the skirts and otherwise update the fashion of the women!
