The Fabulous Fabbies

My Grandmother worked in the office

Great photo. My grandmother worked in the DuPont office for many years. The second lady from the left may be her. My father and uncle also worked for Dupont for many years. I worked there from 1972 to 1978.

Some flappery clothes

Dad looks proud to be & love the view of all the period clothes, but the short skirted plaid blonde is espescially nice.
