  1. Really peculiar - I thought perhaps he was in a hospital gown - with the head bandage - but I'm not at all sold on that idea!

  2. It fits like one. It is certainly not flattering. That grouping of whatever on his right side is most peculiar. And his stance…what can be said about his stance.

  3. I think someone lost a bet!
    The dress color that I see working for him is that 1930s lime sherbet green.

    1. Oh how lovely. And the flowers on the side? Those would be the same or a yellow?

    1. I think photos of cross-dressing was far more common than you might have expected. Sometimes you can tell they were dressed in costume for fun. Then there are the times when you just really aren't sure. In his case I'm just not sure. It's such an unfortunate dress.

  5. I can tell you what was going on. In the decades I spent in photo labs, I never had a week where I didn't print some sort of private photo. Lot's of home made pin-ups, naked wives (And some naked husbands.) people having sex. By far and away, the most common such photo, cross dressing. What's happening is this...people like to do all sorts of odd things. and they like to take pictures. They seem rare, because when mom and dad die, their kids burn the kinky stuff.

    1. I always wondered what went on in photo labs. Did people keep copies of prints? I imagine it was a rule to not do it, but there had to be times when people couldn't resist.

      When I was in LA I remember a guy I sort of knew through a publisher who took a role of film to Fotomat. Next thing he knew he was busted for child porn. I knew he was creepy, but I never imagined him being also that stupid. All 'n' all it couldn't have worked out better. He and his partner went to jail.
