The stove and the turntable are terrific. I also like the feel of the Mt. Rundle shot.

Love the tank, Bambi and love the little "elfin" Emily, Richard!
OK, they're sepia toned family photos. A few years ago my sister gathered most of the photos the extended family had and sent them to me to scan and clean them up. Dad was a really late surprise, so some of the photos go back to the late 1890s. Haven't had time to dig vintage stuff I own out and photograph it. (I must be nuts, a couple of years before the photo scanning project, I scanned nearly 50 years of Grandma Young's diaries!)
Grandma Young's graduation picture from Normal School (what they called teacher's colleges back then) in 1906.

Grandpa Young's graduation from the Army - don't know if it was the equivalent of basic training or something more. The picture was taken in 1908.

Great-grandparents Hummel, Grandma Young's parents. Mid-1920s, can't date it any closer than that. It might have been a portrait for their golden wedding anniversary. In those times, a woman especially stayed married, no matter what the circumstances, but they look genuinely happy, so maybe they were among the lucky ones.

And I'll try to drag out some vintage stuff tomorrow and take pictures. Promise.
I love looking at old photos of people. Does not matter if I know them or not. You just have wonder what their lives were like. There are a few museums that archive photos on flickr that I go through from time to time. :)
