Imagine opening your grandfather's photo album, left to you in his will, and discovering some enclosed snaps like this one. The picture would intrigue me as I wondered who he was, but I'd also feel sad, too, because that would mean Granddad spent his entire adult life in the closet.
One of my grandfathers died before I was born so I never knew him. I've seen pictures of him when he was a young man, and he was quite the looker. My gaydar detector bleeps a bit every time I look at his photos.

I love vintage stuff. It reminds me that whole generations of men enjoyed the pleasures of other men long before I was born. Somehow, that validates who I am.
ReplyDeleteThis is a hot man! I wonder if he's still around.

I'd track down Granddad's friend in the picture and try to find his grandsons.
ReplyDeleteWow, very good looking "granddad".
