my photo
more tricycles ...
A photo of my Dad on his tricycle back in the early forties! It looks like he still has his school uniform on, he looks very smart I must say.

IS WHERE THE HEART IS ...
I will have four garments, they shall be clean, my service shall be good, though my diet mean.
Then I shall have excess to give to the poor, and right to counsel beggars at my door.

I love these old black and white photographs. It must have been a lovely sunny day due to your dad squinting and the shadows across his legs. They look like such happy days.
Hi Louise, what a great pic, I had a similar trike, navy blue, but I think mine was a slightly later model :-)

I loved my trike so much... we were permanently attached until I grew to big for it... boo hoo.

Hi Louise
Isn't it wonderful to have these old family photos?
I don't have any, but I intend to try to track some down, especially now, when I have been contacted by someone through ancestry.com who thinks that there may be a link between us, which she is busy researching.

What a precious photo! Don't you just love photos of parents when they were children?! I have one of my Dad in front of my grandfather's old printing shop... my brother thought it was HE when he first saw the photo! =)
This is a great photo Louise! It reminds me so much of one of my father on his scooter ~ I must get my old b&Ws scanned, he had a fine head of hair very similar to your father's...don't know what has happened to it today ~ not much to show! LOL Gxx
What a great photo! Your dad looks so grand! Sal;-)
