Vintage Winter Holidays (1953 - 1967)

Don't forget to visit b.vikki vintage on Etsy!

Before two and a half weeks ago I'd posted on b.vikki vintage regularly every day. I now plan to pick up the frequency yet again and get things back to normal around here!

Here are some photographs and editorial shots from vintage issues of Ebony and Jet magazines from 1953 to 1967 of winter holiday celebrations and scenarios.




The photo above is my favorite. We're getting to see a party, this one from 1963, in media res. The subjects aren't self-conscious and seems to be genuinely having a GREAT time.










Wishing a safe and happy holiday season to all b.vikki vintage readers!

Thanks for reading.

    I barely recognized Diana Ross. I was going to say that I love the woman in the white dress but then I went over the picture again and checked the scribblings below it and BAM! I see "Diane Ross" lol Thanks for the pics once again. A delicious feast for the eyes.

    I miss those times (even though that I haven't born yet). because models didn't have eating disorders. So it was something more "natural"
