Oblong quarto. Measuring 11.5"x 7.5". String tied, blue leather boards with gilt decorations. Contains 238 gelatin silver black and white or silver toned photographs measuring between 3" x 2" and 4"x 5", with captions. Lightly bumped corners and spine ends, near fine with fine photographs. A woman's album featuring photographs that span her youth to adulthood in New York from 1924 through 1947. The woman, Virginia Kramer, lived in Brooklyn and New York City in New York with her family and while she was studying at Hunter College. She later moved to Boston, Massachusetts. The albums begins with baby pictures of Virginia and her siblings, Joan and Karl, as well as her mother, Nora, and her father, Sydney Kramer who worked as a physician in Boston. The family is shown on trips to Lake Oscawanna in New York, Roslindale in Massachusetts, and Hackettstown, New Jersey. Other pictures show Kramer at a Wildwood, New Jersey Girl Scout camp in 1935 with her friends and chaperons and at James Madison High School and Hunter College. Many of the photos are well-composed with pleasing shots of Kramer's visit to the Brooklyn botanical gardens with her friends and to Harlem, with most of the latter photos captioned with the timing, F-stop, and location of the shot. Kramer completed her degree in 1944 and started working at Mason and then Halloran General Hospital on Staten Island as a nurse. Many of the work photos are of the other nurses posing or having candid fun together. An aesthetically pleasing collection of photographs from a young Jewish woman's life in New York, 1924 to 1947.
