Still Checking It Twice



I would not have known terms such as "grayscale" or "sepia tone" in the early 1950s, but looking through the family collection of photographs from the time, they were the only normal choices. All the snapshots are grayscale (then incorrectly termed 'black & white' which would actually indicate a silhouette) while posed portraits were often in the sepia.
And by the early 50s, my brother Cliff would always be in line with me, sometimes seeing Santa at the same time as I did.
It appears that I always did like wearing sweaters! More views of Santa in the 50s in the next post.

Feel free to let me know what you think. It is exciting to think that some of my photography might be enjoyed by others.
