that's my dad back in the early 1950's. i believe it's when he had just joined the army and was getting ready to head over to korea. i think there must be a lot of stories behind this photo. i'm going to call my dad later today and get some of them.
the frame is a vintage u.s. postal service door that i got from
the jbs flea market. jenni did one too. you can see hers and a cute story about it
HERE.
the little tags are avery jewel tags available most everywhere in the office supply section. i like that the pair of them remind me of dog tags. i could have put elmo on one as that is what they called him back then or papa as that is what we all call him these days, but i chose dad because this one's for me.
So cool. I *KNEW* I should've snagged some of those!
