UPDATE: This was posted earlier as just a really cool photo my Uncle Edward Waddell took. Now, with the help of sister Suzanne, I’ve got a little more information: The little boy on the car in Alaska ( I believe) was either Jimmy or Billy Skinner. They lived in Alaska until Nathan was killed while working there. The child looks very much like a one of the Skinner boys.
Uncle Edward took this photo in 1952, from the looks of it in Alaska–or at least on a car with Alaska plates. I can’t begin to imagine how he took such stellar photographs. He always loved taking photos–I’d love to find a way to do something more meaningful with all his slides.
