**Fairy Offering Flowers to Iris, August 1920**. A photograph of Elsie ‘Iris’ Wright taken by Frances ‘Alice’ Griffiths. A fairy stands on a tree branch offering Elsie a small bunch of flowers. After the first two fairy photographs had appeared, ‘experts’ demanded further proof. Edward Gardner – a leading Theosophist fascinated by fairies who had authenticated the earlier photographs – traveled to see the cousins. Gardner gave Elsie and Frances two new cameras, with secretly marked photographic plates to detect any tampering. He asked them to take more fairy photographs – of which this was one. | src SSPL – Getty Images via Flickr

Takarazuka Girl, ca. 1920 – Unknown photographer. “Probably a Takarazuka Girl, if she had been born only 30 years earlier, she might have become a talented Geisha. Although my photo title paints her as a Japanese ‘Tinkerbell’, as flickr poster Muiz Anwar points out below, she is a Bumblebee or a bee, and not a Fairy.”
