All of the following photos have been restored and colorized by Tekgirl.
Most are photos of her relatives from the past, a few over 100 years ago she is sharing with us. We don't know these people, but they could be our relatives, too.
I do not know her personally or anything about her except it's obvious she is very good at restoring and colorizing photos.
They are interesting to me not only because how beautiful they are, but they provide a glimpse into the way of life during the time the photos were taken.
As you will see, a few photos over 100 years old look new, the colors vibrant.
Tekgirl is describing the photos. (My comments are in parentheses.)
"This is my grandaunt who just graduated from nursing school in 1905."

About the fridge, it's an ice box. No compressor. The ice man brought the ice to your home.
Electrolux is/was a Sweedish brand. Still in business today. Very coveted by home makers back then.

@Foxxee The young woman nurse in the 1st photo I find particularly lovely. And love the dress and hat on the young woman in photo #2.

Thank you for sharing these @Foxxee ! I enjoyed them so much!
My favorite is her mom sitting on her father's car. The expression on her face just says it all - it's priceless!

What beautiful photos! I liked the pictures of Asbury Park. When I was a very young girl, pre school age my family would vacation at Asbury Park. I still love that beach! This person did a great job of restoration and colorization of the pictures, an interesting look at a family history through photos.

Absolutely beautiful pictures! Thank you for sharing.
My family had an Electrolux canister vacuum, lasted over 50 years. I remember it well.
