Pretty cool. Hope you don't mind, I took a screen shot of the magazine page. I'll rotate it & read it later & then delete it. Any objections let me know & I'll delete without reading. Thanks , Tom


No objections at all, I actually found it quite interesting.
Thanks for looking!

That's very cool. I've inherited a lot of family photos. Unfortunately, I don't know who the people are in some of them.


I know the feeling! I have lots of thos type pics myself. Yrs ago I could’ve asked my Grandmothers for genealogy info and learned anything I wanted but I wasn’t interested then. Now I am interested but the knowledge is hard to come by.
Thanks for looking!

The article about the photo just goes to show that photography critics were just as critical then as they are now. Perhaps even more!


True but I must say I agree with most of the critiques!
Thanks for looking!

I have enjoyed this picture for as long as I can remember. It hung in my parents house my whole life and my Mom left it to me and it now hangs in our living room.
