We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
Wow... That little boy has some hardcore man-boobies.
I was thinking the same thing. HA
Future Serial Killer?
ah, thats how my bird died.......
Reminds me of my next door neighbor when I was a kid. He used to shoot birds out of trees with his bb gun, then hang them from the tree in the front yard in his GI Joe body bag. Cute kid.
This is a virtual time capsule: TV with an ash tray on top, hideous floral curtains, needy hold-me doll, fake baby deer, the world's least comfortable Naughahyde-covered mini-recliner, junior wearing white pirate capris and holding either a long-haired toy donkey or a terrified Scotty dog, pointing a gun at the parakeet, and sitting in a corner next to the ice box. 1950s suburbia doesn't get much better than this!
Midlife crisis - nice work! i enjoyed!
um... anyone else concerned for the fate of poor Fido? look at that ear thrown back in horror! i think i can see the whites of his eyes even!
My first reaction was also "Wow! Seriously huge man-boobies for a child!"
Midlife: You forgot to mention the spectacularly awesome linoleum floor.
yup, kid's got bigger tits than i do.
yikes.
MOOBS!!!
*shudders*
"One move and the boid gets it!"
It is unsettling how there's that glint in his aiming eye..
Ana.. hmm.. looks like it might be a terrazzo floor.
Ana, you're right about the linoleum! Time Capsule Boy, terrazzo is fabulously expensive and more likely to be found in a cathedral or public building. (Were you born into wealth? Not too many people even know about terrazzo.) Lee, it looks to me like Fido is about to leap, especially if that toy pistol is a cap gun.
Oh. My. God. I've been looking at this picture on-and-off for five months and I just this moment realized that the fake baby deer is perched atop a pair of bongos. Every suburban household in the late 50s and early 60s had a pair of bongo drums that no one ever played. I can't even remember why we bought them. If this picture had been taken 10 years later, there would have been a fondue pot instead of the bongos.
Ok. Crisis, this is my first viewing of this find, and I had to look for each item that you listed and I saw the bongos right away. But you forgot the venetian blinds! There sure is a lot packed into this corner! I bet the TV trays are parked on the other side of the icebox.
(What's with you and donkeys? What!!?!)
I'm delighted that everyone instantly noticed the moobs just as I did. They truly are amazing!
That's one messed up kid.
Does anyone know if this photo is identified? The little boy looks like my son, but I can't figure out how the pic would have gotten from CA to IL.
...And, don't forget the narrow belt the child has on. This is a very superb retro picture.
EYE FOR AN EYE
Oooh, "Awkward Kids" needs this photo!
This is the first time I've seen it. Wow.
This was the subject of Smith Magazine's Six Word Caption contest.
(...the link is too long to post here but I'm sure you smart folks will find it!)
Mine was
'Wanna star in Dead Parrot sketch?'
but the others were (mostly) much funnier.
Had never seen the pic on Found before now though.
Only slightly more difficult than shooting fish in a barrel. Lazy little bastard.
I think that's a Betsy Wetsy doll, isn't it? Or maybe Madame Alexander.
...Dad?
