It’s been a while since I’ve opened up the shoebox-o-photos to post something from the olden days, so I poked around and found this cute one – of my brother and me rocking some serious 70s prints – that I haven’t shared yet.
On the side of the picture there is a tiny stamp that says “Dec 72,” but Binghamton in December requires a lot more clothes. We’re dressed a little more like July of August, methinks. With today’s instant gratification cell phone cameras, it’s easy to forget that it could take six months or more to polish off a roll of film.
Wow. That’s all I can say
And glad WBW has reemerged. I’ve always liked it!
Sarah, at first I thought that was a picture of Susan?! Wonder if your Mom made those outfits?
You were modeling your newly completed Mom-made outfits!!! And, yes, it often took months to complete a roll of film. Seems hard to believe that we did not take 6 shots of EVERYTHING like we do now but we didn’t because it was so expensive to develop the film and eliminating 4 or 5 not-so-perfect ones just wasn’t an option.
And, yes, Brian’s outfit was a bit gaudy!! And I do believe Kate & Susan had the same little dresses (fabric SALE! What can I say? 😊).
