and the guy on the left does not have the face of a 21 year old. people back then looked older. i look through my dads senior year book from 1944 and 18 year olds look like they are in thier 30's, and thats both the boys and the girls. i never understood that, maybe something to do with the depression.

check out his clothes, he's quite dapper, looks like he's wearing bootcut denim, didn't think they even had that back in the day

The infection would not have been a problem if it hadn't been for his poor circulation.
