Take a step back in time to 1939 with this vintage photograph from Birney, Montana, created by notable photographer Arthur Rothstein. Depicting several men outside a beer parlor with a Pabst sign hanging above the door, this image is a window to rural life in the late 1930s.
While this photograph dates back to a time long past, there is still a sense of familiarity in it. Although the cowboy hats and horses serve to mark the time, the tradition of going out to a bar for drinks with friends is still alive and well. Our method of transportation has changed, but the underlying themes will be familiar for many.
Our experts have digitally restored this image, originally created with a nitrate negative, ensuring every trace of damage and fading accumulated over time has been repaired. The results of this work are our beautiful reproduction prints, honoring the original image while bringing it into the 21st century. Produced with care at our studio in Alexandria, Virginia, our prints are available on fine art paper, or as a finely crafted stretched canvas.
