Who Were They?

Sorry it has been a bit since I last gave you a photo. My family moved house and that is an undertaking in itself! We are finally getting settled and I’ll be back to posting more frequently.

Today’s photo taken by Tilton in Exeter, NH shows us a somber looking young man with busy eyebrows and fashionably curled bangs. His three-piece suit is accented by the starched white collar and bow tie so popular around the turn of the century. Notice that his bow tie seems to have some sort of chain across it in a V shape. I’m not certain what that is, but perhaps it is a type of tie ornamentation that has simply faded from style.
