Spreading the Awkwardness
Remember the war was on, and chairs were hard to come by.
I love this photo. What a great sense of fun.
Look out Kennedys!
I think second lady in the front is getting poked in the back by something
look at that raised eye brow
the lady in the middle…is she giving the finger???
This photo is fantastic. Funny, playful, and still tasteful. I’m not feeling any awkward here.
the lady third from the left seems to be saying Geez Gertie what’d you eat for lunch? I love this picture.
I absolutely love this picture!
Aww the Human domino team of 1945…those were the days.
At least they made Grandma sit up front.
The old gentleman on the far right looks alot like my Digital Media instructor from High School!
i noticed the old man first
LAWWWLLL
&then the rest of the familyy
The older guy sandwiched between the two ladies looks purty dern happy! (BTW, this is an awesome picture!)
I love this picture!!! I hope it is in a frame somewhere.
this photo is awesome!!! TOTAL WIN!
Glad to see that photographic couth has no boundaries or historical limitations.
I like the older lady on the end who doesn’t want to put all of her weight on. And the first lady on the bench who is dying but smiling nonetheless, afterall, it is a photo!
LOL!!!
Is this how people used to get pregnant???
i love this picture!!! good to see people were silly and like us back in the day!!even royalty
“All aboard the booty train!”
Unbelievably great photo!
Oh, my, was I off! Just read the background:
“L-R: Lady Rachel Davidson (lady in waiting to the duchess of Kent); Nada, Marchioness of Milford Haven, Lady Zia Wernher, Georgina Wernher, the Marquess of Milford Haven, Prince Philip of Greece, duchess of Kent, Sir Harold Wernher, Myra Wernher, and unidentified woman.”
Thank you, Marlene. Now we Colonials understand the joke better!
That makes it that much more enjoyable to look at and makes the title that much more understandable! Great Picture!
I think that unidentified woman just strolled into the frame and took a seat, just for the heck of it. Traditions be damned!
The old feller 3rd from right looks so dignified in the midst of it all. ‘Spose his wife (right end) is the one who started it all? Cute!
I really like this picture. They all look like they’re having so much fun. I would LOVE to have a photo of my grandparents like this.
Second from the right was the inspiration for the clown from the Saw movies.
HAHAHAHAHAHA
Fact is, this photograph is awesome.
The tall, blonde guy in the middle looks like a very young Prince Phillip.
I’m pretty sure it is…
EXACTLY what I thought when I saw this!
This is awesome.
Third from the left is the only one who looks uncomfy. haha.
I recognize some of these people from the last frame of “the shining”
Look at the expression on the lady “seated” 3rd from the lft!
YES I LOVE HER!!! hahaha she kind of looks like she’s terrified of falling over and laughing at the same time.
Or the picture was taken just as she was about to announce her discomfort by using the four letter “s” word.
Or maybe she’s laughing so hard she has to pee!!
ALL OF THE ABOVE…I have a pic from the 20′s 30′s of my grandfather with all 12 of his siblings…it’s similar to this one with out sitting on each other..I need to find and post it….
I have to like this picture. Most photos you see from the past are so formal, posed. Even if everyone is smiling.
This photo kinda connects us all……
I agree. This photo is from a time period where you don’t usually see photos like this.
LOVE this picture. Nice to see folks actually enjoying themselves in the old days.
This was taken last week.
HAHAHA
Completely agreed! LOVE to see such humor in the old pictures, not seen often.
I don’t know who looks happier, the guy in the middle or the guy behind the guy in the middle.
I think he’s a saucy sailor! Anchors awaaaaaayyyyyy!
