More Olden Days


I know these are poor quality pictures. They are copies of a copy. I'm sure I've got the original picture, at the bottom, someplace. But this is a picture of me and Jean in our new Hopalong Cassidy outfits we got for Christmas, along with our very fast stick horses. Hoppy was my favorite cowboy. I even had a Hoppy watch at one time. The watch came in a box draped over a little cardboard saddle. You can tell by the picture we were cold, at least Jean was, so I know it was taken very near Christmas. Probably 1950-51. By the way, Hopalong Cassidy's horses name? Topper. I know you can't tell the difference, but that's really me on the right in the bottom picture, not Hoppy.
