Eleven months into my grandparents' marriage (cf. previous post), towards the end of August 1931, my father made his entrance...
As far as I know, the first photo of him that exists is this one from Christmas 1931, i.e. when he was about 4 months old - sitting on his mother's lap, by the Christmas tree.
This photo of him with his mother Sally and grandma Selma must be from when he was around 1 year old (i.e. late summer 1932).
And I suppose this one, with both his parents, is from a year later still. Here I think he looks much like I did myself at that age (25 years later) - haircut, "frock", stockings, shoes and all!!
Here he's been given a more boyish look at last, wearing knickerbocker kind of trousers, and a cap on his head... Hugging a teddy bear rather than a bat; but this is as close as I'll get to matching this week's Sepia Saturday theme!
