Time just never seems to stop..and the years just keep rolling by faster and faster. Last summer I completed part of this old photo project..I wanted to scan all the old photos and get the originals back to the people that would appreciate them the most..the people that were in them. I did..then I found another manila envelope full of snapshots..so they will be getting more old photos sooner or later. Some are marked..some are not..some I can recognize..some I cannot.
Some photographs are really hard to date, this one I knew had to be taken in the 1940's.. the littlest boy was born in the spring of 1941..so that pretty much solidly dates this photo as being 1941. Things I like about this photo, the way the boys are dressed and I like the way the oldest boy has struck a pose..he is pretty darn cute. I have a sneaking suspicion that this photo may have been taken and given to some very proud Grandmas:)
Gorgeous pose, you're right :)
ReplyDeleteLook at the way their eyes are shining with delight - it's too adorable. Lovely lovely photo.
ReplyDeleteIt's very cute and just perfect for a proud grandma to display!
ReplyDeleteVogue~strike a pose! They are sweeties. Thanks for sharing your wonderful photo!
ReplyDeleteHave a fantastically beautiful day! God bless :o)
You never see those kinds of shoes any more, either. He would be in tennis shoes, without a doubt, if it were taken today...
ReplyDeleteGreat pose. This is a wonderful project you have undertaken. I am sure you are making many people happy.
ReplyDeleteThis picture is adorable!
ReplyDeleteWhatever happened to high top shoes like that. Kids wore that type for years. I even have a bronzed pair my son wore.
ReplyDeleteI love your analyzing of these great old photos. It's so neat that they're getting their second chance to shine! Who'd have thought, back when they were taken, that they would be up on a blog someday (blog?) for the world to see? :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with LadyFi there is such delight and excitment in thier eyes. The wonder of being little and something new to learn...
