Shhhh! I know it’s supposed to be Wordless Wednesday. Here are some pictures that I believe were taken in Norfolk in June 1942 when my grandmother came to visit. They all appear to be taken at the same location. Although my grandmother would have been almost six months pregnant, she is not really showing (and her clothes are doing a very good job disguising her bump. My dad was also a small baby. They appear to be having fun trying on all my grandfather’s various uniforms.

How did this post slip by me?! These are fabulous photos. Do you adjust for fade when you scan?
I haven’t really done much adjusting when I scan. On a couple photos I have tried to remove the scratches. I haven’t quite figured out to compensate for the silver finish on some of the pictures, they reflect back some of the light from the scanner.
I love old-time photos 🙂

Thank you! I typically won’t be doing a Wordless Wednesday blog as I am all about sharing my grandparents’ letters. I just managed to time the photographs from Norfolk 1942 to land on a Wednesday.
Loved these thank for sharing them. They are a handsome couple!
Thank you! At some point, I’ll go back in time and share all the great pictures of my grandma during the 1920s. She was very beautiful.
