I found this little nugget in a new-to-me yearbook (that reeks of cigarette smoke and has little torn football ticket halves inside) this morning. Every bit of it makes me smile. The dark-bearded fellow in the floral shirt evokes the (not-then-yet released) movie Urban Cowboy. The fellow in crimson and cream is clearly the aggressor, perhaps Bud-induced, and his failure to don a belt makes me cringe. Beltless jeans make me crazy.
The towheaded guy in orange reminds me of a younger (perhaps more Appalachian) Terry Bradshaw.

Bradshaw Fun Fact: Dallas Cowboys’ linebacker “Hollywood Henderson” infamously said Bradshaw “couldn’t spell ‘cat’ if you spotted him the ‘c’ and the ‘t.'” OUCH.
A whole lot about this picture makes me cringe. As far as Bradshaw I don’t think anyone accused him of being Phi Beta Kappa material.

In Austin, there are many Half Price Books, which I’ve scoured since about 1983. They have Nostalgia/Americana/Texana and sometimes clearance sections with yearbooks. I also go to estate sales and antique stores to find them. In this economy, I’m only getting clearance ones (under $5). Many are $50+ but I can’t afford that. Feel free to convert to Canadian amounts… 🙂

Yeah, that’s a bit steep LOL. And obviously the 1920s ones cost the most.
