You recognize relatives, friends, neighbors sitting at a picnic table in the backyard, pets, but there is always that one photo you can't figure out who the people in it are.
Over the years my husband Ralph has tirelessly scanned thousands of old pics. And between us we're able to identify the people in almost all of them.
But then there is this one Ralph unearthed in a box full of Villers' photos:
On the back it says Phil and Marty, ages 3 and 2.
The photo appears to have been taken in the late '40s, or early '50s.
Phil and Marty look like two mini-men.
Were their parents vaudevillians?
Did boys really wear straw hats?
Was it Easter morning and they had to pose in their new outfits?
The artwork behind them adds a nice touch, as does the cord plugged into the electrical outlet.
I just love this photo, and I had to share.
