About this site:
I have been an avid collector of old photographs and documents for over 30 years. The photographs on this site are derived from material I have collected over the years. Some came from old family albums, some from material I bought at flea markets over the years, and some from government archives of public domain images, including the US Library of Congress, and the National Archives. We appreciate you visiting this blog, and hope you find it interesting.

He's not old enough for Old Picture of the Day but it could have been Laurence Tureaud (aka Mr T). Insert groan here.

Off-topic but Lipton has a great moustache seeing as it is also Mo-vember.
ReplyDeleteI'm coming late to the party, but did you know that tea was the first product in the world to be sold pre-packaged and weighed? British grocers refused to carry it because they couldn't cheat the customers by short-weight, so tea was sold for many years by chemists - pharmacies to you Yanks.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting, Lady Anne.
ReplyDeleteGlad to have that bit to add to my tea trivia!
