Checkmate: 1950
Don Campbell and my father, Jack Shepard, went on a work-related trip to Sacramento in approximately 1950. They both worked as electrical engineers for the Light and Water Department in Riverside County. My father took this picture with his 35mm Exacta, which I still have. View full size.
Capitol Park
This scene sure has the look of being at the Capitol Park in Sacramento.
More than a check
The jacket appears to be houndstooth, not a check. It's obviously tailored, and the three-button cut would still be stylish today; the exterior pockets would not.
Exacta
Wonderful 35MM cameras; rugged and eccentric. But great as a learning SLR. And I still have mine as well and they still work quite well.
Sport coats
He and Paul Drake went to the same men's store.
Fashion sense
Love his suit and tie!!! So 1950s. Gotta love this baggy trousers!! Great photo.
