William in his mick
« on: Thursday 15 February 07 22:11 GMT (UK) »
On the porch at the back of the house? A Sunday afternoon? About 1915? Speculation invited :D

Could someone please de-speckle and tidy this picture, please? I love it, and I'd forgotten about it. Just found it in a box.

Thanks all,
China

The thumb, of course that's what it was...I couldn't figure it out...duh :D

Thank you very much indeed, they're great! It's a wonderful picture.
