Alan Mays' photos with the keyword: Easter Bunny

A photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park monthly topic of something funny . A couple of funny Easter bunnies -- actually dressed up for Halloween -- pose in front of a fireplace as they hold their carrots. Printed on the back: "This is a Kodacolor print made by Kodak. November 1961 R." The November photo developing date was the first clue that these are Halloween costumes (but I'm counting them as Easter bunnies, too!). There's also a scarecrow standing on top of a pumpkin (on the right in front of the fireplace) that's obviously an autumn decoration, and it looks like there may be pumpkin and ghost figurines on the mantel.

A photo of people looking right at you for the Vintage Photos Theme Park. And this doubles as a photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park monthly topic of the 1960s (submit a photo on this topic each week in addition to—or instead of—a photo for the weekly topic). Yet another snapshot of those Quizzical Kids in Easter Costumes , who were celebrating Easter and springtime in 1963.

For more information, see the cropped version of this snapshot.

A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of messy (pics of mud covered children, birthday cake on the face, etc.) . Squinting in the bright sunlight, a cute little tyke sits among the carefully arranged messiness of an Easter photo op. See also the full version of this undated snapshot.

An Easter snapshot dated "Apr 1961." The boy is holding his toy Easter bunny up above his head, and the woman has a pair of sunglasses and a purse (I thought at first that it might be a camera case) in her left hand. What appears to be a garden hose is snaking its way through the lower left-hand corner of the photo. For a better view of the family, see the cropped version of the photograph.

Notice how the boy is holding up his toy Easter bunny. The woman is holding a pair of sunglasses along with her purse. The full version of the photograph is dated "Apr 1961," and Easter occurred on April 2 that year. For similar Easter photos, see A Girl with Her Bunny and Mom and Boys with Their Bunnies and Moms .

A 1960s photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park. Another snapshot of those Quizzical Kids in Easter Costumes , who were celebrating Easter and springtime in 1963.

Based on the messages written by Louise, a former teacher, on the front and back of this postcard, this photo shows two young students dressed in rabbit costumes for a springtime (possibly Easter) school program in Ault, Colorado, in 1910. They're posing in a backyard (perhaps a schoolyard) and seem to be holding a string between them. Handwritten message on the front: "These are the two rabbit characters which made such a 'hit' in our closing program last spring. Mrs. Harding and I made the costumes." Postmarked: Ault, Colorado, Oct. 13, 1910. Addressed to: Miss Grace Burgess, Victor, Colo. Handwritten message on the back: "Dear girlie, Since I am not teaching, I am so busy doing nothing that I don't seem to find time to write to anyone. Wanted to tell you that I have joined the Christian Church. Louise." See also a cropped version of this real photo postcard for a close-up view of the rabbit costumes :
