The Strand


  

This is another one of those throw-in photos I get when I buy envelopes of old photographs.  There are always a few that I'd never buy as a stand-alone purchase, but I end up with them as part of a lot.  Anyway, I noticed that there is a piece of paper on the desk he's leaning against that is headlined, "STRAND."  I thought it might be a hotel room service menu, and there are a lot of Strand Hotels out there, so it's a possibility.  Far more Strand Hotels than I expected.  Dated "NOV 67."

Mr. Sensitive

 

 

About six or eight months ago my computer died and with it, my old, yet quite good scanner.  Basically, it wasn't supported anymore so I couldn't download the software off the web, and so it went in the garbage.  Anyway, I got a really good deal on a new one.  In other words, free.  Unfortunately, apart from being free, it also doesn't have a color correction setting, so this is what the print looks like. 

So, Mr. sensitive, the guy with the guitar that all the girls loved, which means that all the other guys hated him.  There's a processing lab stamp on the back, just the standard "KODACOLOR PRINT" logo, plus a date, "MAY 67PA" I don't know what PA stands for.

Sixties Youth




Ah, the 1960's, and all things considered, a rather subdued fashion choice for the era.  Dated "APR 67." 

For what it's worth, I used the color correction setting on the scanner.
