Vintage Photo - paire 089 | Spiral Notebook - Ruled Line

Vintage Photo - paire 089 | Spiral Notebook - Ruled Line | “Ink the Past. Inspire the Future.” – Where vintage pride meets modern purpose.

Set against the steel cables of a Navy ship, Vintage Photo - paire 089 captures a profound moment of pride, tenderness, and resilience. This restored and colorized WWII-era photo features two Puerto Rican sailors in crisp white uniforms, arm-in-arm aboard a ship. Their expressions are relaxed but resolute—hands gently clasped, bodies close, eyes forward. Their silent intimacy speaks louder than the world ever allowed them to at the time.

Framed in delicate powder-blue scrollwork against a matte black cover, this ruled notebook pays tribute to queer love and Latinx military service during a time when both identities had to remain hidden. Use it for your thoughts, your truths, or your own quiet acts of bravery.
