I love the feel of age in this, which may be simulated or genuine – doesn’t matter: the friable texture of the sepia print, the words that seems to be typed on an old typewriter.
Cheers. It’s from an old photo. I was at a church rummage sale here in Vienna and selected a pile of old photos from a shoebox, dating from the 1920s to the early 1960s. The sellers didn’t charge me for them. I scanned about 20 of them. They all seemed to cry out to be looked at again. This is the only one I’ve been able to set words to.
