some of theses pictures was very very hard to get, some we was just plain lucky to get, the end of Emmett line, they was going to throw them away, all ready had them in a box to do so ( there was a lady in Fl back in the late 80s that had a whole box full of old pictures and she did'nt know who they were and was simply going to throw them away, she never made another reply back? (this is what happens to the old pictures) nobody cares after there handed down from generation to generation after awhile
