Real photo postcard; 3-3/8" wide x 5-3/8" high; AZO stamp block (two triangles up, 2 down). Photographer: Norman B. Reznicow, Photo Studio, 453 First St., Hoboken, N.J. (inkstamp on reverse). Unused and unposted.
She is not identified. She has head shroud with flowers. Floral arrangement in vase on table.
A typical photograph taken to commemorate a ceremony or event which in this case is probably first communion.
====
Except for Jim Hans locating photographer Reznicow in a 1918 City Directory, little has come to light about him. While the date range by photo postcard paper type gives a date range up to 1930, a more likely range is 1918 to 1924.
