Photo of the Week

Another
great photo from the Fred and Lilian Ramsey collection that was sent to me by Richard Crowe who is Fred Ramsey's Great Nephew. 

I will tell you that I have had such a great time with this photo collection.  Amongst the portion of the photo album called "Outing to Beach", I found these priceless personal photos.  As you all know, I love personal photos and especially of people.  These two photos are GREAT!!  I am surmising that these photos are still at Toboga Island as the same man and women friends are in these photos.  Above Fred and friends are having a jolly time having a picnic at the beach.  As an old bottle collector, I love when I see one of the bottles that I have dug in Panama.  This bottle looks like a wine bottle, but could contain hard liquor like rum when zooming in on the glass.  The lady seems to be having a good time seeing her laughing.  Fred is on the left and the other man their friend.  Lilian must be taking the picture.   Not sure what they are eating but looks like fried chicken or sandwiches.  The man on the right is holding a pineapple probably grown right there on Taboga.  The photo below is the Ramsey's friend carrying the picnic basket on his head with the pineapple tied to it.  He is holding the bottle high in the air and has a pipe in his mouth.  Don't ya love the men's swimming suits back in that time?

As always...super great photos and truly a great capture in time of fun and play in Panama

More great photos at Taboga in to come.
