    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    We can always dream!

    Do you buy antique photos of parrots? I tried bidding once on a photo of a woman with a parrot. I didn't go very high, and was outbid on eBay. Maybe it was you? :):(

    love the photo with the parrot!
    I bought this one the other day - across the room the eyes looked white - nice frame with convex glass.

    Someone's Christmas family photo

    There must be millions of them out there. They would make an interesting collection.

    Is this little guy flipping us off?

    Great one! :)

    This season I seemed to see an extra helping of Santa heads.
    I guess they’re supposed to be ornaments? :p
    -
    I thought they’d make an odd and small collection.
    I don’t think I’ll lose my head about that idea though...
    :wideyed:

    There is a guy in one of the Facebook photo collector groups who collects Christmas photos like this. He seems to have a lot of early 20th-century photos in which the decorations and the trees are a main feature of the photos. He would probably like this one.

    some photos out of an album I purchased today.
    I love the hair on the little boy and his dad in the first photo.

    I think this is my favorite part of this site and I would love to share, too, some of the photos I managed to accumulate. This poor "Little Esquimau" one has a 1906 copyright date.
