This is a photograph from the antique shop in Duluth Minnesota
Note the three piece suit and the hand tied western style tie. The photographer used a posing stand to steady this young man while he took the photograph. This photo was most likely taken around 1900.
Thanks for stopping by. Do come again:)
He is a pleasant-looking young man and, oh, what a beautiful chair next to him!
ReplyDeleteThe gent in the photograph seems like he spends most of his time watching paint dry. He should get out and go sledding downhill lickety-split! No joke, I sometimes actually do go sledding with the little kids in the neighborhood. I figure that if I don't do it now in my December years when will I? Many of my peers are now worm food and the bored few who aren't think I'm nuts - but so what?! The good Lord has blessed me with relatively good health so far so I'm going to enjoy it - not waste it. :-)
ReplyDeleteTo me he looks like he is thinking that he is hungry and wishes the photographer would hurry up. He is thinking about biscuits and gravy.:)
ReplyDeleteYes, the young man must be hankerin' for good, old-fashioned biscuits and gravy! It's great comfort food and just what I should fix for my Colonel's supper tonight. Thanks for the idea!
