SF-Approved Before Any Of Us Were Born

Here's a photo I dug up from the archives of my gmail. It's a family photo and my grandfather is the gentleman all the way on the right holding the guitar. Take note of the double-breasted suit and two-inch cuffs!

Well the guy all the way on the right is holding a mandolin, the guy sitting is holding a guitar. So your grandfather is the one sitting with the cuffs? It looks nice, but you should never unbutton the DB suit, even while sitting.

Most likely, you can't see the cuffs on the guy standing.

Nice pic, looks like a bunch of greaseballs. Could be my family.

Hehe, una faccia, una razza.

And yes, my grandfather (whom I sadly never met as he passed before I was born) is the one seated with the SF-approved cuffs, but SF-disapproved unbuttoned d/b jacket (is that actually true? I feel like being seated with a d/b jacket would put too much strain on the buttons).

Whats really interesting, is that on the left side of this picture, just out of frame, Vox's great grandfather was posing for his WAYWRN portrait.

Did someone say greaseballs?

My grandfather and his "associates". My older cousin and uncle used to go around with him in Williamsburg to make collections. "What's all that money for?" my cousin asked, to which my grandfather responded, "Santa Claus has to pay for all those gifts with somethin'!" My grandfather was the last one seated on the right of the picture.
