1950's bear
« on: May 06, 2012, 03:13:54 PM »
my mom found these the other day.  The two twins on the right is my dad and his brother.  The man holding the bear is their dad, (my grandfather).  Pretty amazing.

Great old pictures.  I ran across a bunch from my great grandfather.  They are all duck hunting pictures.  A family tradition.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!
