Deborah Lundbech's photos with the keyword: 1940s

Uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of: ANYTHING LIKE A SCOUT - trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and/or reverent. I have no idea if this young girl had any of those scout-like virtues - but I'm posting it on a purely visual hunch. Found photo from a house bordering the Bristol, Vermont green that was having an estate sale, probably about 15 years ago. She is currently unidentified, but I'm hoping to identify her this year at the Bristol Historical Society. I'm guessing this was taken sometime in the 1940s.

Uploaded (late) for the Vintage Photos Theme Park monthly theme of : OBLIVIOUS My mother-in-law making "angel wings" over the shoulders of an unsuspecting, oblivious friend. Late 1930s/early 1940s, Colby College, Waterville, Maine.

Brian's mom being passed over to Ron, Brian's Dad. Don't know who the first guy is. Taken sometime in the 1940s.

My mother's friend Jill and her mother who was visiting from England.

My mother's friend Jill's son. In Louisiana. As Rick says, a far cry from the padded carriages of today!

Brought forward for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of "The passage of time". This photo (taken by my mother) shows the front room in her family's London flat, 1948. One of those timeless rooms that remained exactly the same for decades. It also had a glass fronted cabinet and a piano. The clock had Big Ben chimes. Taken in 1948. 79 Seymour Road, Leyton, London.

My Dad squinting into the sun. Early 1940s, Kasfareet, Egypt. He was in the RAF. Brought forward for the Vintage Photos Theme Park theme of "Egypt." And, sheesh... guess this is the month of featuring my father for this group! He was stationed in Kasfareet for the duration of the war.

From a series of photos sent by my Dad to his sister in Wales. Written on the back: Reading from left to Right: Eric Oldham, Hugh Collyer, me and David Hamilton-Green (Henry) The title for this is "RETROSPECTION" No. 3 - Read the letter before you look at the snaps.

My mother, then Hazel Gregory. Brighton, 1948.

My mother in Brighton in the back of the tobacconist shop where her boyfriend Jock worked. 1948.

Written on the back: "Yours Truly" on "Tilly the Toiler" This was my mother's last sort of serious boyfriend - before meeting my Dad. Jock Cameron was a tobaccionist on Brighton Front - she met him in the Navy. She told me his room-mate played Simon Templar on the radio series. Jock eventually emigrated to Australia or maybe South Africa.

Pat King, soon to be Pat Draudt, is escorted by her Dad, Harry King, to the Congregational Church in Springfield, Vermont. Probably Agnes King behind her holding the veil. Not exactly apple blossom time, more like mud-season. Better viewed large.

I think Ronnie was enlisted in the Royal Canadian Navy at this time, so maybe this was taken when he was home on leave. A companion photo to this one: Joanne at 19

My mother about age 17 - 1941.
