Vignette
This shot was obviously taken by a professional. It was put on some very nice postcard stock and looks to have stood the test of time well. Unfortunately, there is no information on the back, so it could have been reprinted. All we have is this woman's face, fading away.

C.S. Lewis
A lovely group of kids, sometime near christmas, showing of their sweaters. On the back
Sue 17-Senior
Doug 16-Jr
Annie 13-8th
Janet 10-5th
Christmas 1961-Betzalds
They could almost be the Pevensies. Janet has a strong resemblance to Lucy, and Sue could easily pass for Susan. Perhaps behind that wooden wall, Narnia lies.

Polaroid
Polaroids have always had their charm, whether it be a classic sx-70 with the iconic borders, or the colour pack film with its over saturated pictures. But another great kind is the black and white shots. This one is from the 60s or 70s at some unnamed play park. That jungle gym is probably still their. Happy kids, smiling faces.

Death
Some photos don't need words on the back to tell a story. This one looks to be at a funeral or hospital. The whittled flowers make it all the more sad. It's one of the smallest photos in my collection.
