Bottle Fed
Someone cut the top off of this photo to feature the baby and her bottle. My best guess is probably around two-thirds of the image has been trimmed off. Dated "JUN 55."

More Throw-Ins
So, I'm pretty much open to comments. Apart from hate speech, I'll pretty much leave anything up. If you want to tell me my written thoughts are idiotic, say so and I'll leave it up. There is one thing, however, that I'll delete as soon as I see it. Please don't put up an advertisement in the comments section.
So, as I've noted before, I buy a fair number of envelopes of miscellaneous prints. Of course, there are always some prints I really want, but there are also some throw-ins. They're not necessarily bad photos, just ones that I wouldn't buy if they were only available as individual shots, and this is one of them.

Confident Young Men
I don't know if this photo looks so familiar because I've already posted it and threw it in the wrong storage box, or because it was supposed to be the next one up, and somehow or another it got shunted into aside. Anyway, these guys all look like they're ready to face the world. For obvious reasons, I've spent a lot of time thinking about war for the past few weeks. My guess is this photo is from the twenties, or perhaps early thirties, that they are all high school kids, (With a much older teacher in the lower right corner.) and most would have ended up serving during World War 2. I have to wonder, how many survived?

Em's Eyes
I'm always a bit wary about what's written on the back of photos. I buy them at flea markets, antique stores, and on eBay. This picture was purchased in an envelope full of snapshots and "EM 65" could refer to almost anything. Still, the hair and clothes could easily be from 1965, and Em could be short for Emma or Emily, so Em from 1965 it is.
