Historic Hood River
Old Fashioned Party

Notes
Here’s an “Old Fashioned” party thrown my Mrs. Stewart and Mrs. Cram at the Columbia Gorge Hotel in 1923. It looks like quite an event. The hotel was newly opened then.

My mother, Lois Sheirbon Shedrake, liked to relate the story of her Odell High School home economics class visiting and marveling at the hotel’s all stainless steel kitchen.

I am curious what era most of these dresses are from. 1880’s and 1890’s?
Just wondering how many of these women did not have to dig very deep into their closet to find something to wear.
