Description

This item is a black and white photograph of a man and woman exchanging a set of what appear to be keys on Main Street in Blowing Rock, North Carolina. The library and fire department buildings can be seen behind them. They are standing in front of an early 1950s model car that is parked across several parking spaces next to the sidewalk. The woman is wearing a long skirt and carrying a straw handbag. The man is wearing what is possibly an army envelope hat. The back of the photograph states "Photo by Larry C. Harris September 7, 1954 Keep here." Image housed in binder labeled "Downtown 1" of the Blowing Rock Historical Society Collection.
