Vintage Dreams

With many photographers in the family, I have a wonderful collection of photos, especially old ones. If you like vintage pictures, this is the place! I have carefully looked thru hundreds of pics to bring you the best! See me as a goofy kid, my mom and dad, and even some cheesecake from granny in her day! Also, if you enjoy old Hollywood, you will also like pictures I have selected of my great-great uncle, Sammy Stein. He was a professional football player and wrestler, and also had bit parts in over 40 movies from the 1930's and 1940's. Included here are rare photos from my family's collection, featuring a few stars as well that you may find interesting. Please also visit tangoland.com. Thanks!

absolutely gorgeous packard! i saw the pic of you called "monterey"...looks more like pacific grove (oh, wait...was that on pacific street? the building looks kinda familiar).tying the packard and the monterey shots together, did you ever do a cherries jubilee? i have a buch of pictures from this year's cj on my myspace page. while i saw a packard there, it wasn't your '52.
your videos are wonderful. hope to see more of your work soon.

I absolutely love your artwork!! I especially love the Red Tango cat!! I first saw some products at Petco and I immediately fell in love with them!! I ended up buying a photo album & it now holds pictures of my sweet babies (yes, cats). I'm glad you have a website & a store. Now I can buy more stuff! Keep up the great work!!

Hey so who are you? I was searching for pictures of my great uncle Sam and found this site. I don't remeber him since I was very young when he died, but I do remember Snap and there was an old picture of him too. My grandmother, Rae, was there sister. Anyway I was wondering?
Miouo 16-Jul-2006 19:49
Ok, I clicked w/o adding anything before. I LOVE the pics and when it came to the last one I was thinking "AW, no more?" then I realized how many there were! awesome pics!
Nancy [your ol' Aunt Nan] 13-May-2006 03:53
Hi,Cynthia --

It is I again, your ol' "Aunt Nancy" -- which you would PROBABLY call me if your mom and I had stayed closer over these many years! I was thinking of Sharon (your mom), and decided to peek in on your Web site again. It certainly has evolved! I LOVE the photos; and, it's like a trip down "Memory Lane." AND, your artwork is very SNAZZY! [I LIKE that cat!]

If your mom wants to drop me a few lines (via e-mail), my e-mail address is Greenwich_e@Yahoo.com .

In the meantime, please say "Hi" for me to "Shar" -- and your grandma, Ruth.
I can still see the look on their faces 48 years ago when I stood on their doorstep (before school) to announce the birth of my baby brother, John -- the night before my 14th birthday! Your grandma Ruth was wearing babydoll pjs when Shar announced from the front door, "Mom, Nancy's mom had a baby last night! My silly mom had been keeping it a secret because she was then in her 40s. I wonder if Shar and she remember that vignette from years past! By the way, Mom is about to become 93, in June!

I know that YOUR Mom's 62nd birthday is just around the corner; so, in the event that we don't connect before that (July 2nd), please help her blow out her candles! By the way, I just celebrated MY 62nd last month! Wow! Are WE old!

Love

from yur ol' "Aunt Nan"
