The picture of the outdoor banquet is a true work of Americana. Think about it, there were no throw away cups, plates, utensils or tablecloths, everything had to be washed and dried by hand.

Those are cool, thanks for sharing! It's weird to think about everyone in those photos is in the ground now.

And nothing to cover the plates when the flash scared the pigeons.

My stepdad has a Glidersleeve of one of the classes of Baylor (circa 1900's). It a one of the landscape pictures with the students (all males, of course). I believe they're in the quadrangle. It's been a few years that I studied it.

I hope that he bequeaths it to me one day. If he does, that picture is going immediately up my one of my walls.

The old Waco City Hall image is cool. They don't build like that anymore.

Amazing photos! Thanks for sharing

The house in the background of the old sanger school photo is still standing and in good repair. Well over 100 years old, beautiful victorian...

The building in the background of the picture of the Baylor - TCU homecoming game was Baylor's science hall when I went to Baylor in the 50s.
