A bunch of people reached out to me asking to buy them off me. I’m working on sorting them into categories such as: confirmation, wedding, and regular head shots. I’m glad that they will go to good use instead of a landfill. Thanks for the amazing response on the last post. I learned so much.

Old timey clothes look like they're hella hot. Imagine those dresses in the humid summer.

They wore heavy wool clothes in the winter because there was no central heating. In the summer months they probably wore lighter linen or cotton clothes

In 1976 or so I went to my grandfathers house after he died. He had a suit from when he was a boy wrapped in paper and in a box. It was in perfect condition. It was from his father and was made about 1895. I tried it on, it fit, and it was one of the most uncomfortable things you can imagine. Thick itchy wool, terrible.

That's nuts and cool that you have access to your family history. I can't go back that far. But my pops has a crazy story of how when he was a teenager, he and his brother hid in the jungle, living off the land as the Japanese occupied Guam until 1945 when the United States liberated the island. They then asked all the males who would join the armed forces would become automatic citizens and then he joined the Navy.

tl/dr War is hell, but it got you to see the world.
