Vintage shots from days gone by!

I guess the family got bigger so they needed a larger touring car?

 

nice try... this shot is only a couple of weeks old!

 

Can anyone here identify this car?



I'm guessing late-30s Mopar, based on the wheels. That is my grandfather in the picture, which I believe was taken about 1940.

 

looks like tony rome

 

ol blue eyes hisself

 

IF you have been a fan of this thread for a LONG, LONG TIME you would understand. Denise Diplock has become sort of a Mascot of 'Vintage shots from days gone by!' that reappears from time to time.

First appearance (I think??) ~78,769 posts ago!! Someone spotted this photo and knew her from High School.

 

1936 Chevrolet.

Isn't the second from the left Lois Lane??

 

nice headlights!!:d:d

 

Julie Gibson, Noel Neill, Gloria Saunders, and Kay Scott between takes on the set of Out of This World.

 

Hey, that's my uncle Ernie and Uncle Jack. They owned a gas station on Main Street in Los Angeles>

 

Give us a clue, ozfan, which post number was it?

I recognise your name from Flickr, I think I have posted some of your pics on here.

Mart.

Edit:

I just realised, Ozfan22 is Denise Diplock!

Welcome to the hamb, Denise!

Mart.

 

Ozfan22 huh? The mystery is solved Ditto on the welcome

 

Hair style by the Windy City.

 

Hey Oz, uh what picture ?????? What gas station on what block of Main ?

Now Deuce Daddy at least put a picture up ! Post 81527, Hey , any more shots ofthe place now ?

scrubba

 

Gas station 1941.

 

Has no one noticed that one of the two in the photo is a woman and the photo info says "Mom and Uncle Roy?" How does that fit with "Uncle Jack and Uncle Ernie?" The address is 4533 S. Main in L.A. which is plausible.

 

Welcome to the HAMB Denice

 

I have contacted Denise and have given her the site to look at what has happened. I am waiting to hear what she thinks. She seems like a very down to earth person and hope she will like what we think of her

 

don't think so I have contacted her and she knows nothing about the web site

 

Oh well, spoke too soon

 

Talk about bullets!

 

That was always known as "missile tits".

 

Houston we have a problem! Those are cone bra's which were very popular in the 50's. Some of u guys are older than me and should know that.

 

OK, I'll clear it up!------Uncle Roy was my Mom's uncle, that pix is of him & his wife in 1941 at their gas station out on Imperial blvd. in the Lennox area just East of LAX airport.
Back then, Imperial blvd. was just a 2 lane highway running West to East.
Did you notice the sign in the window that said "Notary"??---I guess he did a little of everything back then.------Don

 

Thanks, that makes sense. I guess everybody did everything they could in those days. Notary was probably a good source of a few extra dollars.

 

Well whatever they're called they look better than the latest trend of the bowling ball/cantaloupe look.
