Age of Sitter in Photograph - What is Your Guess?

[sfj]

Before I looked at any responses, I guessed 35-40. Sounds like there's a fair consensus.

By the way, what are the three wooden legs that seem to peep out from the gown of the first person to the left? I suppose people had only two legs also at the time. A spare photographic tripod? A stool which was not used? A tripod for a pot of flowers?

(A small mistake in the composition for sure, but who is without sin?).

I'll guess 23; he's sitting next to Mom & Dad, who are both in their early 40's.

Forgot to add: the people in back are his siblings, not his kids.

Were they worried you would ask them to poop on you? :munch:

Please tell me this is a GG Allin reference...

NO way! Hitler was doing it before him... Or should I say, receiving it.

During the war the OSS commissioned an American shrink, Walter Langer, to do an analysis of Hitler. He spent several months amassing every shred of info he could find and interviewing every person outside of Axis territory who had ever met the man. He then used all this info as essentially the patient on the couch and wrote a report. It was finally declassified and pubished as "The Mind of Adolph Hitler" in 1972.

According to Langer, being urinated and deficated in the face was one of Hitler's sexual turnons. Langer does predict that the most likely end to Hitler was pretty much what happened. I read it about 20 years ago. It's a fascinating book.

Oh, look what I found...

I had no idea! "According to Langer" does go a long way though. Who knows?

 

[tomalophicon]

There's no real proof I don't think. Though it's a story good for a laugh.

The only connection I could make between shit and a toothbrush mustache was GG's brother Merle, who is famous for sporting a big overgrown one...hence the question, which must have seemed a bit off the wall.

Yea, he's definitely in his early-mid twenty's. Mom on his left, then Dad furthest on left (classic 'rose between 2 thorns' pose).
