“#FindTheGirlsOnTheNegatives”
That is the hashtag crated by Looks Like Film Artist Meagan Irene Abell which hopefully should help her find the women on these images. But why???
Meagan found a box of vintage negatives in a thrift shop in Richmond, VA. No one knows where the box comes from and no one knows who the women on theses images are. Meagan was able to scan the negatives and what she discovered is simply amazing. We do not know lot about the images, but they are most likely from the 1940's - 1950's, when looking at the beautiful dresses. It is our mission to help Meagan and find informations about theses images. It worked with Vivian Maier once, so why shouldn't the Internet be able to pull it off again.
“The most important thing for me is finding out what the story is behind the photos ! Community is really important and without it, i more than likely wouldn’t even have a chance of finding the original owner. That is what photographic art is all about. Help me find the owner !”
If you have any informations, don't hesitate and contact us over at lookslikefilmpage@gmail.com with the topic #FindTheGirlsOnTheNegatives and we will be happy to help Meagan solve this little mystery.
!!! UPDATE #1 !!!
Photographer Janelle Pietrzak obviously found the location of the photos, while looking on the photos. There is a perfect resemblance to Dockweiler beach in L.A. See photos.
