I posted Baby Sutton in her flag dress on Pixiamom's 4th thread so I will recycle another of my posts from last year here.
Happy 4th!

Yes VintagePCs... I love that photograph too! We don't plan to downsize much of our collection of photographs soon but I'll keep you in mind if we do.
I was determined to have a new image for this year. Somewhere I have a early 20th century comic post card with a text that reads something like "Take a tintype of your little boy before it is too late" with a graphic of a fireworks explosion with a boy being tossed into the air. Pretty grim humor :-0 but an interesting view of what we think of as a more "genteel" age! I have seen others in the same series but that is the only one with a photographic connection I think. I looked through 3 boxes of post cards but never found it. Yes, we do have too much "stuff".
