Geisha Day at Ainsworth School

Geisha Day at the Ainsworth School, 1919.

From the collection of R.F.


This photo, so I am told, shows "Geisha Day" at the Ainsworth school in 1919. I have no more exact date than that.

I don't know who these little girls are, except for the one at the right end — we think she is Gladys "Toots" Lindborg. The teacher is unidentified.

Nope, I don't know what "Geisha Day" involved, beyond little girls dressing up according to their notion of what a geisha might wear.
