Even with current technology (80 years later) most of the photos aren't hals as sharp and to the point as this is.

"Give her an electric grill for Christmas"

Heh, nowadays most women would make an electric grill mark on your fact if you tried to give that to them for Christmas!

Interesting photo from the days of slow film and long exposures.It's unfortunate that the print was done by a hack who probably used coins for masking the light bulbs and failed completely to tone down the glare around the lady.Back when I developed and printed all my own film I would have welcomed the challenge of getting perfect prints from that negative.
