That guy looks like he can get things done, like he knows what to do in any situation, and he's seen all there is to see. Look at any 18-year-old kid today and they look like children. I keep waiting to look and feel like a grown-up, but instead I'm cursed with these boyish good looks and a youthful voice--everyone thinks I'm 30 when they come into the shop and ask if my father is the one who started the business. At least my beard has gray hair in it, so when I don't shave I look my age... A wonderful photo. Thank you! Here’s another photo I digitally developed from old negatives! They were just married and he was 18 and her 16 in this photo. I was lucky enough to know them. Miss them dearly and my fascination for the period comes from their stories. There’s a little exposure from something else on the right side but, it’s a 98 year old negative!!

John_Mereness 4,483 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 (edited) This is a challenge given the angle of the photo, though this popped up on Facebook last night and is probably a Reo Royale Victoria - I was hoping it was the rare and illusive Reo Royale Dietrich Sports Sedan, but the windshield is too rounded at the top.
