My great-uncle Harrison, sometime in the 1930s. He lived from 1907–1939 and died of tuberculosis at just 32. Not sure what the story behind this photo was, but I’ve always found it interesting.

Could this be a campaign badge for a late 19th century/early 20th century sherif? Found at a flea market.

My dad was born in October 1946. Always thought it was interesting that little boys wore baby gowns like this back then. I really love this picture of him.

Since my posts about Carl have gotten a lot of attention, my interest in him has gotten even higher. I bought a Newspaper.com account to hopefully find more pictures of him. I think these clippings basically tell his story. (spanning from 1907-1948)
