Martin Zdrojewski

Happy Birthday, Marty!

Here is the happy scene in 1951, with Zdrojewski menfolk Ludwig, John Peter, Eugene John, and Martin.  Marty seems content, nestled in the arms of his great-grandfather.

Ludwig is holding something in his fingers.  It looks like a ribbon.  Oh, I bet it's Marty's cap, the little bonnet of the Christening outfit.

Check out the gents' ties.  These men were cool before it was cool.

And those glasses are coming back into style, aren't they?

Who dusted those Venetian blinds?



So here's Marty in 1953 most likely.  It looks like a studio portrait, but I bet JPZ did the whole thing at home.  I wonder what he suddenly held up to catch the lad's attention before tripping the shutter.

And what's not to love about those bells on the shoes??



I would be delighted to post birthday posts for all the grandchildren and great-grandchildren.  It's up to you, dear readers, to send in your chosen photos and the complete birthdate.

Stolat!
