this could be like. 30% less ominous

A red-carpeted stairway descending toward a passageway. Above the passageway is a sign, also written in red, that says “LOOK OUT.” This is of course to warn that the ceiling is the perfect height for Marie to hit her damn head on

Based on the “Elburn man” headline I’m guessing this gal lived in/near Chicago, couldn’t find a copy of the newspaper/article tho.

I found a few of these, they’re all composed like promotional shots. Google image search was unhelpful, but my pure-speculation guess is maybe this fella was a country/folk musician? 🪕

No date info, I’m guessing circa 50s or 60s based on her dress and haircut 👗
