EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, captured by Underwood Archives in 1958, we are transported back to a sunny day at North Avenue beach in Chicago. The image showcases the timeless ritual of applying sun tan lotion, as a young girl carefully tends to her friend's back. Amidst the backdrop of Lake Michigan's glistening waters, these two women epitomize the carefree spirit of summer. Their laughter resonates through the air as they enjoy each other's company under the warm sunlight. Bathed in monochromatic hues, this historic snapshot serves as a reminder of simpler times. However, beneath its nostalgic charm lies an important message about health and well-being. As skin cancer continues to be a prevalent disease even today, this photograph subtly highlights the significance of protecting oneself from harmful UV rays with sunscreen or sunblock. The scene is filled with vintage beachwear and swim attire that adds to its authenticity and historical value. People in the background further enhance the sense of community and camaraderie that often accompanies days spent at the beach. This remarkable image captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes emotions associated with friendship, joy, and vitality. It serves as a poignant reminder to cherish our memories while encouraging us all to prioritize our health when enjoying outdoor activities under the sun's rays.
