I found this great Olan Mills family portrait at a thrift store. 40 cents later and it was mine. I wasn’t a big fan of the frame so I was going to move the picture into another one and I found these other two photos behind it. I’m guessing this one is for a high school yearbook photo or something:

I haven’t gotten around to reading it yet, but I pretty much got it for the pictures anyways. Like this guy in an early French gas mask. It was pretty much just 32 layers of the finely woven cotton fabric muslin.
