Another antique mall pic with zero information. By her bob, I can guess it’s the 1920s. I love the clarity in this one, and their small smiles. They seem so relaxed and content.

Passing through Lampasas, Texas, we stopped into Rustler’s Junction and noted these taxidermied critters. Taxidermy ain’t cheap, y’all. That boat of animals was priced just under two grand.

How about this guy, getting into the Cracker Jacks? Even post-mortem, they’re STILL sneaky little buggers!








Grandpa wasn’t the only one smoking. And evidently, supermodel Christy Turlington was there.


I can’t even explain what’s going on up there.

They laughed at knobby knees. 
They said “How” and sat next to teepees before cultural appropriation was offensive.

They looked like Gomez from “The Addams Family.”
They did chores.

And they wore these boss golf shirts.









Sometimes the ads in the back of old yearbooks are just as interesting as the pics inside. This is a right fancy car for only $790. Looks like you could rear end the fellow in front of you and still not come close to smooshing your legs.




The yearbook included this cool image of the students inside a cave. Creepy!
Then there’s this too close for comfort wrestling team. 
En garde! Theater students have all the right moves. 

Dr Pepper’s old ad campaign used to suggest drinking it during peak sugar- and energy-deficient moments during the day, at 10am, 2pm, and 4pm. Perhaps one could say a prayer thrice daily as well?
At least thank God for beer. No need to get all aboard the bottle itself. Quite a core workout, that.

War images were available as well. 
Y’all know how I feel about my Coke. 

This is cute, even to folks who aren’t sci-fi nerds.

In the words of Carrie Underwood, “I don’t smoke, but sometimes I need a long drag.” Or in this case, a long draw…


Today, I have three new Antique Mall photographs of indeterminate origin–no dates, no locations, no nada. But how could I pass up this guy with his Gomer Pyle eagerness? And, oh, how he is bookended! Evidently, they offered secret trial silicone lip injections in the 60s…
In the upper left reflection, you’d swear he was the living LBJ himself!

I can’t hazard a guess as to what this second image is, although I doubt it was a Communist Party or Black Panther meeting. Nicely crossed hands and legs on the taller one. 
And this last one, I bought just for the lass on the left. Such chutzpah to don white glasses! What a Kanye move! Don’t you suppose the two in the middle are related, whatwith their hopeful eyebrows?
