Lost Photo..and wishful thinking
« on: Sunday 24 September 06 12:50 UTC (UK) »
Hello all,
I know this is really wishful thinking on my behalf, but it can't hurt to try.  Wink...  Who knows, just maybe one of you might have seen this picture somewhere. Huh

This is how the story goes....

Many years ago a picture of my grandfather went missing, we think he might have thrown it out. Shocked Shock! Horror!!...Hoping somebody might have saved it from the tip. Huh

It was a picture of him as a young boy standing next to his huge black Newfoundland dog... it was taken in about 1910. I think he would have been around the ages of  6 or 7.
The picture was in a frame that would have measured roughly about 17inches long by 15inches high.

The family lived in  North Sydney, Australia.

You will all think I'm that I'm delusional, but crazier things have happened.... Corsharn Grin

Hi ScRoppers,
You're right, you have seen this photo before Smiley I only attached it so that people could see what my grandfather looked like, just in case they had seen  the "Lost Picture". Grin

Sorry for the confusion, I should have been clearer in my posting. Embarrassed

Cheers,
Corsharn
