This is the oldest of my Grandmother's pictures I have found, so far. She signed this CAD Scott, which places this picture in the area of 1942 to 1944.
I particularly like this color pencil work as it documents a piece of family history.
Grandmother has shown herself as the teacher, about to whack her oldest son.
Raymond, the oldest son, also has a rubber band and is aiming off to the left.
Behind him is my mother, Jaquelyne.
Behind her is my youngest uncle Douglas.
The girl to the left is Donna, whom was eventually to marry Raymond, though died in the 1960's I seem to remember.
In front of her is a red haired boy but I have no ideas on whom he could be.
Although this picture was glued to cardboard, the paper was of very high quality so there was no mold or acid damage! What are the odds for a piece of this era?
