asterrocEarlier this year, one of my Mom's cousins emailed us a crapload of family photos, mostly from the 1920's and 20's I think, that he'd scanned and color-corrected. I've finally uploaded them to Flickr and added some of my own commentary. In case you'd like to see a few samples and don't want to go there, here's some of my favorites.
If the flower in the girl's hair is is white, that means she lost a mother or father recently, according to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
blahblahboy's mother. Seeing as these are "family" photos, and no one else in the family there has a flower in their hair, I suspect the girl is a family servant. (Then again, would a servant have been in a family photo?)
Oh yeah, did I mention they were stinkin' rich? That's real fur.
There's so much character revealed in their faces, and more yet hidden.
I actually know everyone in this photo. It's Atlantic City, 1960's.
Nga Boo on the left. I wear that jacket in the summer now. The same jacket, not a repro. I'm guessing 1970's-80's?
