My grandmother, Ella Rose Williamson married Henry Nelson Pierce on a Wednesday evening, Oct. 6, 1886 in Pawnee City, Nebraska. I was told that this was a common practice in farmland communities. Brides didn't wear white because it wasn't practical. As her gown deteriorated over the years, she saved a piece to make a starfish-shaped pincushion for me that I cherish. My "Dad and His Big Brother: 1902" was recently posted on Shorpy. View full size. Fashionable!Her dress is exactly the sort of dress a young lady of her era would have had made for a wedding. You picked something fashionable and impressive and wore it as your "best" until it became shabby or too glaringly out of fashion. Many women chose black, garnet, or bottle green as wedding dress colors, deeming it more re-wearable for church, parties, and other special occasions. I believe that the floral panels are burnt-out velvet. "figured velvet" was a popular trim fabric at that time, and figured velvets with a taffeta backing were often tone-matched to a solid gros-grain silk which would be used for the main body of the dress.

Here is a picture of my grandfather taken in Binche (Belgium) in 1940. He's the one sitting on the front bumper of this 1939 Buick Special, with two of his friends behind. He was 19 at the time, and they had just been called to join the Belgian army, as dark clouds were quickly approaching. The 1939 Buick Special was owned by a local wealthy taylor in Binche, which was at the time a thriving city specialized in clothes manufacturing. At the time, an American car was quite rare and a sure sign of wealthiness. The Belgian army was defeated in 18 days, and my grandfather and his comrades fled to southern France. He almost went to England to continue the fight, but happened to be less than 30 miles from his fiancée, my future grandmother. So they went back together in Belgium, and went through the war unarmed, although he was regularly sought by the Germans to go and work in Germany. View full size. Still special after all those yearsSome additional information coming directly from my grandfather (he's almost 94 now but still very young at heart). The guy standing in the back is actually the son of the tailor who owned the Buick. I guess that's why he was allowed to stand on the running board ! The picture was taken while they were on leave.

Taken in my old hometown of Springfield, Massachussets and printed from an original 5x7 glass negative in my collection. The envelope protecting the negative is labeled "Corner of State & Dwight Str. City. Old house occupied by Mrs. Gordon and owned by RB & Co. May 29, 1890 4:30 AM." On the telegraph pole to the right of the building is a broadside for Edison's Talking Doll, which was only in the market a brief few weeks in May 1890 before being recalled. View full size. Edison Talking DollThe dolls (22" high, weighing 4 lbs.) were offered for sale in April 1890 at $10 each ($20-25 with a full dress), but of 2,500 shipped, only 500 sold, many of which were returned by unhappy customers, leading to an end of production in May. There was no spring motor so the child had to turn the crank at a steady speed to play the 6-second nursery rhyme. (ShorpyBlog, Member Gallery)

Posted by Fathead - 09/02/2020 - 1:55pm -

Photo taken on the boardwalk of Coney Island around July, 1948 by my mother on a family outing from the Bronx. The Dodgers were still in Brooklyn and Steeplechase park was one of the most creative and exciting amusement park rides of its day. Dad was a milk truck driver for Sheffield Farms Dairy one of the earliest suppliers of hygienically sold milk in the city. His "trucker's wallet" on a pocket chain was part of men's wardrobe in the day. Steeplechase park included many fun family attractions including a gravity-powered ride in which people raced each other while riding wooden horses that glided along parallel metal tracks over a long and curving course. I was too little to ride what was considered a bit dangerous adventure. An entire family could spend the day at Steeplechase, picnicking and walking through the gardens. Of course, they'd also likely end up splurging on a few of Steeplechase's carnival games or other rides not included in the combination ticket. Steeplechase park opened for the 1897 season and was an immediate success. Tilyou's park was more than just a collection of rides. He had well-maintained gardens and benches and areas where families could picnic. Bands played it closed in 1964. (ShorpyBlog, Member Gallery)

My father took this Kodachrome of me in 1956 in Riverside (now Windsor) Ontario. The tube radio was tuned to 1130 AM, WCAR in Pontiac, Michigan. Also visible on the dial are the Conelrad (Civil Defense) stations, at 640 and 1230 kHz. Every Saturday at noon we heard the air raid sirens being tested in Detroit, just across the river. The red opaque plastic glowed warmly in the dark. The fact that I am holding the globe with Australia in my hand was prophetic - within two years our family had moved there. My favourite song on the radio at this time: "Standing on the Corner" by the Four Lads. View full size. Great picTerrific pic. Thanks for providing. Hope things went well for you all in Oz. Did you stay? Came to love maps about the same age as you - always wanted a globe. Funny how things don't always change. Australia a classic pink bit of the British Commonwealth in '56. Guess Canada was the same. Malaysia and Burma clearly were. Barely an empire to speak of 10 years later. But CHOGM meeting in Perth this week! Cold War comments interesting. Despite best attempts by politicians, most Australians happily managed to tune out of the whole end-of-the-world thing. All too far away; busy eating lotuses. But an American friend tells me how her neck always tingled when the sirens were tested in her city, Hartford. Way different worlds. JP in Sydney (ShorpyBlog, Member Gallery)
Allied Combat Glider, Belgium: March 1945

This is a found photo. Written on back: "March 1945. Dexter Nunley, T5 and myself on guard at a disabled glider that put down near our camp at Lasne-Chapelle - Saint Lambert, Belgium. No one injured." Allied combat gliders were towed behind modified bombers or transport aircraft and used in some of the riskiest missions of World War II. Lasne-Chapelle-Saint-Lambert in Province du Brabant Wallon (Wallonia) is a city located in Belgium about 13 miles south-east of Brussels, the country's capital. General Courtney Hodges' U.S. First Army liberated the region south of Brussels and Maastricht in early September 1944. On February 4, 1945, the country was reported to be free of German troops. Following liberation Belgian towns were widely targeted by unpiloted German V-Bombs, particularity centered on the Port of Antwerp. German crews fired more than 4,000 V-1s and more than 1,700 V-2s at greater Antwerp. Lasne-Chapelle-Saint-Lambert is located approximately 57 miles south of Antwerp. Operation VarsityThis is a Waco CG-4A glider. Operation Varsity, the biggest single day airborne operation of the war, was on March 24, 1944, with the goal to get across the Rhine and into Germany. A total of 1350 gliders, including 900 Wacos, were used. Perhaps this is one of the 900 that didn't make it across the Rhine. That the GIs are not wearing steel helmets but their helmet liners painted white suggests a very safe, behind the US lines location. (ShorpyBlog, Member Gallery)

My Father taken December 1918 in Homewood, Maryland. The Johns Hopkins campus was located there. This was before the City of Baltimore expanded its borders to include the campus. He was a member of the Student Army Training Corps (a cross between ROTC and a 90 day wonder). He was a corporal in this picture (they didn't wear the chevrons on the great coat), but was mustered out within a few weeks of this picture.I have been told that he is holding an Enfield riffle. He graduated Hopkins with the Class of 1921 (Mo Udall was a classmate of his). Type of RifleThe rifle your father is holding is not an Enfield. Although the name Enfield is often used for that rifle but it is not an accurate description. It is a M1917 using the US nomenclature. The history of the rifle is this. Prior to WWI,the British were thinking of introducting a newly designed rifle to replace their Enfield SMLE. Tests were done and they settled on the Enfield Pattern 14 rifle. But then the war broke out in 1914 and it made no sense for them rearm during war and they went full capacity to make the SMLE. But they were short of rifles, so they took the P14 design to America and had several companies start to make it in 303 caliber for shipment to Britain. But when the US became involved in the war they too discovered they were short on rifles so the instructed the companies making the P14 to stop, retool it for the 30-06 cartridge and that rifle became known as the M1917. There were more M1917's used in WWI than the 1903 Springfield rifle. So, calling it an Enfield is a reflection of its origins but not its proper Model name. I hope that helps.

Wedding postcard of Mr. and Mrs. Antonio Petruzella taken February 20, 1955 in Alabama (probably Birmingham). Most likely related to my mother-in-law, as her mother's last name was Petruzella. Probably a cousin. Photographer listed as V. Cappalonga but no longer in business. View full size. I don't think we're in Alabama anymoreMost of these old photographs have the name of the city or town where the studio was located, and this is no exception. Mussomeli is a town in Sicily, and there is still a photography studio under the name of Vincenzo Cappalonga doing business there. So they probably are relatives of your wife's family, but a little more distant (geographically speaking) than you first suspected. (ShorpyBlog, Member Gallery)

Phone us. SCHICKEN CHOWDER COBURN BROS. Portsmouth, Ohio Phone 745. Scanned from the original 4.25 x 2.75 inch snapshot. View full size. At the Store with the Checkerboard SignI found over 800 ads placed by Coburn Bros. from the first on February 6, 1912 (for Fairchild's Flour) to the last placed on October 18, 1935 (for New Timothy Seed). On January 1, 1936 Ramey's Feed Stores of Wheelersburg began advertising as the "Seccessors to Coburn Bros., Portsmouth." There are also a handful of articles which indicate that the business was started sometime before 1909. They bought out a rival feed company early in 1925 (Horr Bros.), and expanded into the old Wheelersburg Milling Company building with a branch plant in that city. In the spring of 1927 they opened a third location in Lucasville, and the next year another in Minford. Within a few years the last two locations were dropped from their advertising. News items included such tidbits as: October 1909 - Oscar Coburn Jr. was operated upon for fistula, and by the 1st of November was reported to soon be back at his post at "Coburn Bros., the Kendall avenue millers." July 1911 - "A team of horses belonging to Coburn Bros. went down" on East Gallis Street, as automobile tires picked up oil from the freshly oiled Gallia Pike and deposited it on the paved street, making it as "slippery as glass." May 1915 - Complaints were made of a foul water pond in back of the Coburn feed mill ("said to be full of dead animals and rotten corn cobs"). October 1916 - Thieves broke into office of the flouring mill by "jimmying" a back window. They completely ransacked the place and broke open two locked desks, but nothing was taken. "The safe was unlocked and always is." May 1927 - Fire swept through Wheelersburg, destroying much of the town, including the Coburn Bros. mill. Within 30 days construction began on a fireproof building to replace the old Coburn frame structure September 1927 - A small fire broke out in a cabin near the Portsmouth mill and "Employees of the CBM and outsiders used water and chemicals from the mill to extinguish the blaze before the firemen...arrived upon the scene." The ad below—from page three of the October 30, 1922 edition of The Portsmouth Daily Times—is the same from which the quote in the caption is taken. Click on the image for a larger version.

We lived in Beek en Donk, a village in the Netherlands, 15 miles from Eindhoven, the home city of Philips Electronic Industries. The group had been installed recently, my sister (18) was a leader at the Cub Scout group (called Bagheera), my older brother (14) was at that moment the oldest member of the Boy Scout group (leader of the Eagle patrol), and I was the youngest one (member of the Hawk patrol). At our first camp, I remember I was so cold my brother took me with him in his sleeping bag to warm me. Note the hats and sticks that belonged to our outfit in the far right corner. The campaign hat was said to be so practical: It protected you against rain and sun, and it could be used to stoke up a fire.

This CDV of Thomas C. McMackin was taken about 1865 in Vicksburg, Mississippi. McMackin owned the Washington Hotel in Vicksburg, and he operated one of the finest restaurants in the city from the building. McMackin made a name for himself with the unusual manner in which he informed guests of his menu. He would announce his offerings in a loud voice: one patron wrote that during his visit McMackin proudly announced "Now then, here is a splendid goose! Ladies and gentlemen, don't neglect the goose and apple-sauce! Here's a piece of beef that I can recommend! Upon my honor you will never regret taking a slice of the beef. Oyster-pie! Oyster-pie! Never was a better oyster-pie seen in Vicksburg. Run about, boys, and take orders." When asked once why he had such an unusual method of announcing his menu, McMackin replied that he had once owned a restaurant in Jackson, Mississippi, that was frequented by members of the state legislature. So many of them were unable to read that he resorted to shouting the menu to let them know what was available. View full size. (ShorpyBlog, Member Gallery)
