Google images says it's from the 20's. Late 20's I'd say... The newspaper the little girl is holding up is the 'Daily Worker' which was (and might still be) a Communist publication.
@ Stephen: LOL. It takes all kinds, as they say... [grin]
This *could* actually be from 1920 as its when the British Communist Party was created. They dissolved and became something else in 1991. They were never hugely popular only reaching a peak official membership of 60,000 in 1945. Their newspaper - renamed The Morning Star in 1966 - is still in publication. I haven't seen a copy for YEARS though. Again not a huge circulation.
