Mystery Photo: Going Some
Going some? Huh? What is that supposed to mean? Seems like a weird name for a fake boat.
The back of this postcard photo indicates it was shot at the Owl Studio, 10 E. Superior. St., next to Duluth’s Empress Theatre. Estimated year: 1912.


Apparently that was slang for “excellent” … I think perhaps a form of our “he’s really going somewhere.”
Ah ha! Going some job figuring that out, Gina!
