Kenney School - 8th Grade
This is a real photo postcard (RPPC) of the eighth grade class in Kenney, Illinois. Do you recognize any of these individuals?
The photographer was the famed C. U. Williams of Bloomington, Illinois, who is credited with 'inventing' the souvenir picture postcard in 1895. (Watterson beats Peoria's tallest by a mere foot!, Bill Flick; May 27, 2005; Pantagraph.com).
