"Up Up and Away"

Although this photo is not very clear I wanted to post it to show how much fun Grandpa was...he did have a great sense of humor. Unfortunately we tend to remember him in his remaining few years....but by that time his memory was not good and his personality had changed due to his failing health....You also can see that Nonna also had her moments. That is her standing with grandpa's fedora on in a Ma Barker pose. Aunt Rosette is standing on the now famous "Stoop" and my mother standing on the sidewalk. I would say that this photo is circa late 1930's early 40's.....A lot of these pictures were really never that clear to begin with. My father was a amateur photographer and had an old Kodak Box camera and he developed all his own pictures, because paper was expensive, he would print very small photo's, some as small as an inch or so. That is why I am fortunate to have so many of these little glimpses of our family. I have "LOTS" more and if you enjoy seeing these let me know. I have a ton to post yet.
