Four Women Archers Shooting at Targets, 1926-1927

Four__Women_Archers_Shooting_at_Targets_19261927.jpg

This photo of four women archers is at the bottom of the introductory page for Women's Athletics. The top of the page has a drawing of an archer. These women were all dressed in knickers or bloomers, long stockings and tops. All have their bows drawn, and you can see a target in the distance. The women also had their hair bobbed short above their ears, which is very reflective of the changes in style during the Roaring Twenties. The women were seen wearing shirts. Several appear to be wearing bloomers, while at least two were wearing knickers. All had long socks/stockings covering their legs. All had short hair bobbed around their ears. The administrative head at the time was Kathleen Lowrie.
