Alta Photos - Halsey Photos Bathing Girls

Issuing Company: Country of Issue: USA Year of Issue: 1920s Color/B&W: B&W Number of Cards in Set: Card Size: Issued as insert with what product:

Notes: Checklist incomplete. Unnumbered. Blank-backed. These cards are in the style of the Mack Sennett bathing beauties cards. They feature unidentified women in bathing suits, mostly at the beach. Some of them say Alta Photo on the cards, while other say Halsey Photo.

These cards are related to the Schonwasser Bathing Girls (E281) set and the Pull-Rak California Bathing Girls sets. They feature the same models as seen in those sets, though there doesn't seem to be much overlap in poses.

At least three of the cards have identifications of the women on the cards. Two of them are identified as Ann Fisher, while the third one is difficult to read the name.

I am using a picture checklist for this set. Click the small photo above to view the known cards for this set. Most of these pictures were supplied by collector David Masini.

Thanks to David Masini for helping with this checklist.
