57+ years ago: In 1966 (maybe before), I bought a dark blue shirt
with lime green polka dots at the Boulevard Mens Store. The store closed and the building was reused for another purpose. The front was painted over for the new store. Years later, The original store front was exposed when the store was being renovated. Here is what was uncovered.
I am wearing the shirt in the picture below at my parents'
25th wedding anniversary, in 1966 in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania.
I wore it
for a short time and then put it in a closet somewhere. I got married
in 1969, and the shirt has been following us around for 47 years
(as of 2013).
Recently, my sister put the anniversary picture above on facebook, and I responded:
"I still have that shirt !!"
My plan is to wear the shirt in many places and post pictures of me
in the shirt at the links below. I will add to this set as I travel
around the world (well at least around Austin, Tx.).
