My guess is that that town hasn't changed much. Some of the buildings are probably still there.

Overrun by groundhogs and their worshipers every Feb.; don't know how many take the train in to town.

Interesting early G class PRR loco there at the station.

I think I went to school with most of those kids. Maybe even had the teacher.

It was probably @ 40 years later, 1940-1947 grades 1-7, but there really is not as much difference in dress or appearance as would be seen between
1980-1987 and today. The kids are even larger now. The dress would be more colorful and sloppier. The shoes today would all be athletic shoes.
Also they "dressed up" for picture day back then as we did in my elementary school days.

I think nostalgia is/ may be getting the best of me.

These are really quite a group of expressive kids - photographer really captured a special moment.

Would be really interesting to know who they grew up to be and what they did with their lives.

I agree with you fully, Rufus. They are a charming group, each one of them , epitomized by the friendship apparent between the two lads at front row , left, which is a joy to witness. And , yes, seeing the group makes a person immediately hope they all grew up healthy and strong and possessed of long successful, safe lives.

Yet, it also came to mind that some World War may have done some damage to that notion.

Also , there seems to be a beautiful diversity in the apparent ethnicities present among them, which likely was all the more part of their enjoyment of their lives together .

The portrait is the polar-opposite of wearing masks and social-distancing, isn't it.
