“This shows some detail work on the Reynolds, Smith & Hill building in Koger Park, about 1964.” LS This is one of a small number of color prints in the Loyd Sandgren collection. The note gave me a little information about the subject matter but I’ve run into a lot of dead ends trying to […]

“This photo was taken in my studio when I was on 22 East Beaver St. The girl was a stripper, in fact at that time I did many of those girls. My reputation as a stripper photographer was well known even as far away as New York.” LS

While not the Baby New Year, she is close to being in her birthday suit. This unnamed young lady was found in one of two albums of photographs by Loyd Sandgren entitled Nudes. None are particularly shocking but a number, due to the passage of time have high camp appeal. I don’t know the status […]

A swimsuit model photographed with an odd organic form floor decoration from the late 1940’s or early 1950’s when Loyd Sandgren was working for the C.H. Brown Camera Store. It was probably shot for an advertisement and the image of the model and prop would have been cut out and reproduced against a white background […]

A random image from one of Loyd Sandgren’s Theatre albums. This image is in the same category as the photo of a man balancing on a chair. I don’t know what it is about but I like it!

A transaction taking place at the ticket window of the Greyhound Bus station in downtown Jacksonville. I’d place this photograph from the late 1940’s or early 1950’s and it was probably the Bay and Hogan Street location which predated the current Greyhound station downtown. Great informational signage.

Bodybuilder Gene Hill with an unidentified bathing beauty at one of Jacksonville’s beaches in the early 1960’s. Admit it, as corny as it is we’ve all taken one of these shots at some point in our lives.

A full length view of a previously featured strip tease artist in all of her feathered and sequined glory photographed in one of Loyd Sandgren’s downtown Jacksonville studios. I think the cigarette in the cigarette holder adds a real touch of class!
