Sepia Saturday 108




Sepia Saturday and Alan has left us to choose our own theme.
Surprise
Pretty ladies
Feather and bows
Hat.

Ah ha I had a photo picked before I checked Alan's link and lo and behold it works.
I apologize if I have used this photo before but my grandmother was on my mind since I had been doing some genealogy today at the library.
Her hat is a Fedora according to Google, looks like with a tie on the front of it.
But at first glance it looks like RCMP hat.
Mine, on the left of my gm is a Tam or Tam-o-shanter, I think, worn in my own style.
Sort of topsy-turvy.
Whatever it is called, my gm made my coat and hat and probably the dress and undies I had on.
Out of feed sacks no doubt.
Why my sister has bare legs and arms I do not know, unless gm just wanted to show her off.
This photo was taken in 1940 on the front step at the end of the sidewalk at their home. You know out in front.
