This image was in a binder of of radio station photographs in the Loyd Sandgren collection simply entitled WMBR, WPDQ, WFGA, WJXT. No information about the particular photograph was attached so all I know for sure was that this was the Northeast corner of Hemming Park looking East with the Haverty’s furniture store, now the […]

This is a wonderful photograph of women’s basketball but photographer Loyd Sandgren left no clue as to the identities of the teams, the location or the date of the photograph. The image probably dates from the mid 1940’s to the early1950’s since the pants still have a belt which went out in the early 50’s. […]

“In 1953 my friends gave me this photo for Christmas, my daughter Carolyn helped me display it.” LS If you don’t get everything you want for Christmas, may you at least get what you really need. Merry Christmas from Vintage Jacksonville and best wishes for the new year. Bob Self/Vintage Jacksonville

As the summer winds down and the days at the beach become more limited it seems like a nice time to post this image by photographer Loyd Sandgren. This undated photograph, probably dating from the 1950’s of a stylish young lady on the beach has no information about the location or the identity of the […]

This is another behind the scenes image from the film shoot shown in San Marco shown in this previous post. It looks like a different angle on the same setup judging by the sidewalk and driveway toward the back of the car.

The Lakewood bound City Coach Lines bus picks up its fur shawl wrapped, high heeled passenger in this staged 60’s vintage photograph by Loyd Sandgren. There are a number of photographs in the Sandgren collection shot for the city and Greyhound bus lines from that era in Jacksonville. Different time different fashion.

One of the two random photos of belly dancers found in the Loyd Sandgren collection. Despite the period costume, the glasses on the dancer and the hair style place this photo as late 1960’s early 1970’s. Check out the other frame here.

More Women’s Wrestling action by photographer Loyd Sandgren shot in the arena located at Main Street and Beaver Street. The details of the crowd, seen better in the enlargement below are fascinating. The men’s straw hats, cigarettes being smoked. Then there is something about the guy sitting in the right of the frame with the mustache […]

This is not the best image technically from Loyd Sandgren’s professional wrestling images but the note Loyd attached to the original print was too good not to share. “Here was one girl throwing another one like she was light as a feather. Names I don’t remember but I sure remember the fights. They were good […]

There is no information about what was being filmed but it looks to me like a production shoot, perhaps some type of commercial, late 1940’s or early 1950’s. According to the 1949 Jacksonville City directory the Harry P. Davis Service Station was located at 2045 Hendricks Avenue, just before the San Marco intersection with Atlantic […]
