Field of flowers – 1967
Not the Sound of Music
This field of flowers with the snow covered mountain in the background could be any place in the world. From the snow covered Alps-like Northern Cascade mountains near Leavenworth Washington, to Switzerland, Germany, Norway, Scotland or just about any other country. It is sort of reminiscen [...]

Vintage Stage Coach picture – 1961
This is a great photo in so many ways. We have a Stage Coach in 1961 provided by “Bob’s Stables,” and a couple of people dressed up in “Western wear” of some sort. Including one older gentleman dressed in the more feminine costume. Kids are climbing around on it to get the [...]

I was not able to find the exact painting, but [...]

Beech-Nut Oatmeal
Located in the kitchen of tomorrow, loaded with all the modern conveniences the modern woman could want is this vintage photo of a box of Beech-Nut Oatmeal – Pre-cooked for Babies. This product is still made today, but apparently the marketing department decided to change the box to appeal to parents instead of childre [...]
Easter Sunday – 1955
Every time I look at this first photo of four women dressed for Easter Sunday, the lady on the far left reminds me of Nathan Lane in The Birdcage.
1955 vintage photograph of four beautiful women getting ready to go out Easter Sunday.
Wave Hello to the camera!
After the service, it looks like the photographer said “Wave hello to the came [...]
