Description
Original 9 x 11 inch photograph (Contact sheet) showing Miss Palmerton,Pennsylvania on the 75th anniversary (1987) of this wild & crazy town. No identification as to who this lass may be... but I bet someone from this tight knit community will know? Gotta love that 80's Trucker hat and short shorts. Photograph was taken by noted resident Warren Siegmond of Palmerton.
