Inspired by an article entitled “Then and Now Photos Show People as Young Adults and at 100 Years Old” , I took a look at some of the family photos in my own collection to see if I could assemble a similar group.
The results were somewhat surprising. Most noteworthy . . .
In many cases, I found pictures where the poses were quite similar, even though many years had passed in between.
And of course it was fun to see how some facial features never change!
Here’s my collection . . .
