Kleinhans 1938

In Buffalo, Kleinhans means two things: The Buffalo Philharmonic and fine men's clothing.
This receipt for my great-grandfather is obviously from the latter.

 

?, ca. 1937

If anyone knows what building this is, please let me know. At first I thought it was the White House, but it seems too small.

Capitol Building, ca. 1937

 

Washington Monument, ca. 1937

 

The Mall, ca. 1937

Kings of the Hill

I've always had this photo in with the other Adirondacks pictures, but now I'm not so sure it's from the same time. That's my grampa in the front, lying down, but he looks younger and is wearing a different shirt. The knickers in the back make me think it's the 30's. Perhaps it is.
In any case, I have to admire them for hiking up the mountain in dress socks and regular shoes.

Knickers 1936

I don't know who this chap is, but I can't get enough of those knickers!

Grampa Kelly 1936

My grandma's father in the Adirondacks.

Setting Off 1936

From near to far:

George Kelly (my grandmother's father), Charles Howell, Walter Howell (his brother).

Hiking Gear 1936

I don't know who this young lad is, but I love the cars and the woven basket. Do I note a hint of color on one of those cars?

Adirondacks 1936

I couldn't tell you who these folks are, but I imagine they are friends or relatives of my grandfather. My great-grampa Kelly is on the trip, so they may be from that side too.

By the way, the Adirondacks is what "Upstate" means to me.

Grandma Sloat and Dick 1935

Taken in the summer of 1935. I can only assume that this was the Sloat farm.

Grandma and My Uncle Dick 1935

Grandma and her new baby.

 

Naomi in her Wedding Gown, 1931

My grampa had this picture in an old frame on the dresser in his room at the nursing home. Even though he couldn't turn his head to look at it.

Charles and Naomi ca. 1927

I always thought this picture was taken at the Buffalo Zoo - because of the stone and the railing (even though the railing isn't like that, at least not anymore). I'm not really sure where it was taken.

 

Charles ca 1926

If the previous post was my grandmother's yearbook pictures, then I think this was my grampa's.
