A group of African American friends took a trip to Niagara Falls, New York, and Hamilton, Ontario one summer day in the 1930s. They photographed each other standing or sitting in posed pictures. Afterwards, they wrote along the photo borders recording who was photographed. They sometimes included silly or timely phrases such as "Feelin' Fine" and "Bet your life."
