This image gives the idea of the First Holy Communion an interesting twist. What about the first communion with yourself as an other?
She is trying hard not to look at her mirror images by looking into that book which will fix her identity.

There is a photographers blind stamp in the lower right corner:

I read: "H Raffaelli / S PAULO". But I could not find any information about this photographer. Perhaps the name is Roffaells, or Poffaelli, or Taffaelli or the town is not Sao Paulo in Brazil. If you have any information or other photos like this please contact me.

Marco, an antique collector, bought this postcard in an antique shop in his hometown in Mexico just being fascinated by the image. Searching for more information he found this Blog and without being asked he donated the images to this Blog to share them with others with the same interest. That's what this Blog is all about. I hope many others will follow. Thank you, Marco.
