(Not So) Wordless Wednesday - Post 88: Randy Smiling

I'm posting family photographs from my collection on Wednesdays, but they won't be wordless Wednesday posts like others do - I simply am incapable of having a wordless post.

Here is a photograph from the Seaver family collection handed down by my mother in the 1988 to 2002 time period:


This cute and smiling little boy is moi - probably at age two or three (since I have my canine teeth in!). It was taken in 1946 or 1947, probably at a studio in downtown San Diego.

I need to scan more pictures - I'm limited now to posting pictures of myself since I've posted most of the historical family photographs previously scanned - at least the ones that have some interesting content. Fortunately, Scanfest is this Sunday and I hope to attend! I think I will pull out Della Carringer's scrapbook and work through some of the pages. I have photocopies of some of the pages but then a scan is a second or third generation image.

  3. I love the smile ... wonder what was said to you to make you giggle. But then I think I see that same twinkle in your eyes in your profile photo. It looks like the cold weather is going to keep me at home this week-end and I may attend Scanfest. Looking forward to SNGF and responding 'on time.'
