Curious collection of vintage photos with arrows drawn on them [1]

['Allan Rose Hill']

Date: 2024-07-03

Esteemed vernacular photography collector Robert E. Jackson curated a curious collection of vintage photos hand-annotated with arrows.

"Arrows stand in for a variety of semantics, such as directions, movements, changes, temporal orders, interactions and binary relations," he writes. "Alone they mean little but in context the arrow symbol refers to other surrounding elements."
