Dead People's Photos

Children still alive - Norma Lynn's first dance troupe - No gold to be found -That's right

It may be my twisted Catholic upbringing but I feel a "responsibility" to purchase photos of other people's dead family members. All it takes is some hand tinted pink cheeked Shirley Temple look alike or some square black and white glossy of a street urchin and I am throwing away money.

The way I see it, there are two scenarios. The first is that there is no more family, that everyone who had a vested interest in that particular pink cheeked cutie or ragamuffin is dead and they are forgotten - (unless I buy the photo of course). The second and in my opinion, the most disappointing, is that the children in those photos somehow managed to raise a bunch of thankless degenerates who drove away the Mercedes loaded with every every gram of gold they could sniff out but didn't give a damn about their parents baby pictures or their own for that matter. 

That is where I come in - never fear poor deceased cherubs, red, yellow, black and white, because I have your photos and you will become my instant ancestors -  my adopted grandparents from dubious geography - my cousins many times removed with foreign features - I am here and in generations to come, my grandchildren will proudly display your photos in their books and on their walls as they share the stories of their very large, very diverse family.
