3 different times

In keeping with the National Scribe's "old pictures" post, I thought it would be fun to post some "older" pictures. Maybe you have some pictures that came from a different time also. Let us know and tell us where we can see them. Your blog, maybe...?
(click on the pictures for a larger image)











My father's second grade class. 1924. He was only 6 years old.
He's the boy with the big black bow tie in the second row, second from the left.



















David and Tom on the duck farm -- our present home, minus the farm and the duck part! -- 1952.













Gobby's couch (which I'm sure most of us remember!) and (left to right) Jevan, Sean, Timmy, Tommy, and Amy. 1973.

*** Edited to add: This is one of the pictures of David that I think shows a resemblance to Matt, which is weird, because I think Matt looks like Carolyn. Oh, well. Just one opinion. What do you think?

I always thought that David and Matt resembled each other. I'll try to find the picture of David I have that really looks like Matt.

Times havc definitely changed --some for the better and some not so much.
