Very different jobs and hardworking women. The first one looks like a black and white picture, coloured later.My working women are here.
I love the switchboard! One of my postcards today is women working in Mexico. https://lisasgardenadventureinoregon.blogspot.com/2025/03/thursday-postcard-hunt-women-working.html
I must admit that whenever I see telephone operators portrayed Lilly Tomlin's alter ego Ernestine comes to mind.My women are here
Lovely postcards.
Hand colouring black and white cards was common - I like the effort, even if they sometimes got it wrong.And, Lily Tomlin was my first thought too. One ringy-dingy, two ringy-dingies...
I'm afraid there are only four Thursdays in April! :)
