Groundhog Day with A. Aubrey Bodine

Posted on Feb 4, 2014

This past Sunday, a nation waited with bated breath for the emergance of one of Pennsylvania's most notable residents: Punxsutawney Phil. Solar worshipers, much like Denver Bronco's fans, were nothing if not dissappointed when this shade-fearing marmot tucked tail and signaled the arrival of six more weeks of polar vortices winter at this year's 128th annual Groundhog Day festivities. 

Baltimore photographer A. Aubrey Bodine was on hand at the 1937 emergence and captured yet another shadowy proclamation.
