Two Boys


 

There's a very faded Agfa Lupex watermark on the back of this photo.  Agfa started off as a company manufacturing film and photographic paper in Belgium, but after World War I it became part of I.G. Farben and was headquartered in Germany.  The Lupex brand paper was manufactured in pre-World War 2 Germany and during the war itself.  It was sold almost exclusively in Europe, so there is an extremely high probability that this photo was taken sometime during the 1930s or 40s in central or western Europe.

Cowboys


  

Literally, boys, though I don't see any cattle around.   From an age when farm kids were expected to ride horses.

The Here, There, and Everywhere Collection-Learning to Swim









Well, this one was a pain in the ass to scan.  Believe it or not, this was once the way swimming was taught, and for all I know, it's a method that's still being used.  As a matter of fact, I once found myself on my belly, on a gym floor, practicing the crawl.  Problem was, I had been swimming for almost a decade.  I can't remember if I got splinters or not.

There aren't any photos on the reverse of this album page.  Click on The Here There and Everywhere Collection in labels for more photos and more info.
