  2. I really like your photos but thought I should let you know this. The composite of the women and their hairstyles is inaccurate in that the very first picture cannot be from the 1900s. The photo is of F. Scott Fitzgerald's wife, Zelda (Sayre) Fitzgerald. She and Scott met in college in the early '20s. The picture you have is of her in 1917. The same photo is used on the her page on Wikipedia.
