Portrait of love

Several readers asked me to show the photograph of the romantic couple I wrote about in Friday's Treasure Hunting column, so here it is:

Lea Sammons of Sandpoint is another lover of old photos. Sammons wrote:

Hi Cheryl-Anne,
I loved your column about vintage photos! I too have always been
fasinated with old pictures, and when people ask about pictures I have
displayed and find out they are of people I don't even know, they always
look at me as if I'm a little nuts! ha! Now I don't feel quite so
crazy.
Sammons also wrote about seeing an old photo of a 1920s baseball team in an antique shop in Carson City, Nev., and how she was smitten with one of the players on sight. I have to confess, I have a photograph of a World War I "doughboy" that had the same effect on me. I bought the portrait when I was younger and I've kept it ever since. My daughter saw it one day and asked who it was. I replied, "Oh, that's just an on old boyfriend." She didn't know what to make of that.
