Eye on the Past:
Stuhr Museum Weekly Photograph
Featured in the Grand Island Daily Independent

Happy Halloween!
These ten unidentified young boys appear to be having a devilishly good time. Grand Island photographer Julius Leschinsky captured this haunting moment during the late 1920s. So what do you serve to little devils celebrating Halloween? Pumpkin pie, angel food cake and, of course, lots and lots of candy. From the tablecloth to the streamers, grinning faces of jack-o-lanterns cry out Happy Halloween!
