You might agree that it’s cool to study bygone epochs and cultures by photos: clothes, hairdos, poses.
The heroes of our article decided to open their family photo albums and take another look at the pictures that were taken in the last century.
“My girlfriend’s mom and aunt, 1977”
“Great-grandmother with her sister and my grandmother. This is circa 1917.”
“The spirit of fun captured here has definitely been passed down from generation to generation.”
“My great-aunt helping my grandmother prepare for her wedding, September 1949”
“1986. Married 39 years. Couldn’t dream of a better person to share my life with.”
“Slightly suggestive photo that Nana sent to Pop, circa 1942.”
“Granny and her friends posing in the snow, 1923”
“Peep the beehive hairdos my aunt, mom and Grandma are sporting. It’s circa 1965.”

“My mom and aunt in the 1970s. I wish I had inherited those legs!”
“My grandparents on their wedding day, September 26, 1966”

“Grandma here is 21 years old. She sent this photo to my grandfather, 1951.”
“My granny on the beach in her scandalous swimsuit. Early ’60s. She’s beautiful both inside and out, and probably one of the most amazing and coolest women I’ve ever known.”
“My great-grandmother Alice, 1930s”
