Thumbnail

 

Not in the way we use the word now.  This photo of Grandma reading the paper is about the size of my thumbnail.  It's a bit out of focus, and if blown up, wouldn't be readable. 

Cut in Half

  

This is another one of those photos that has been cut down from a larger image.  I always wonder why.  An ex-boyfriend, how about an ex-husband?   Maybe it just needed to fit in a frame.  Written on the back, "Mon. Jan 2, 1939."  An interesting year.  The Great Depression was winding down, and U.S. involvement in World War 2 was only a few years away.  

Somewhere in Europe

 

Good Germans between the wars?  I have no idea where this photo was taken, but it's printed on Gevaert Ridax paper, manufactured in Belgium from 1905 to 1959.   

Judy's Baptism

 

Written on the back of the photo, "Judy's Baptismal Day.  Carleton & Judy Pak."
