My Mother found this while cleaning out some junk at my Grandparents place. I am guessing i was around 4-5 or so at the time of the picture. I can't say I am overly impressed with the pants though. My Mother made them more than likely. "Store bought" clothes weren't really a thing for us back then. They were all Hand me Downs or made from scratch.

Vertical stripes make look you taller.

Looks like you had, making money on your mind early!!

I think you should try to find some pants like that and wear them to the next convention. I didn't know they had muskrats that big in Minnesota.

And you’re probably still wetting the bed…

I had pair of tweeds ..just like those. Mom bought them at the side walk Bizarre clearance rack

So when did firearms enter the picture ?

Bell bottoms, no less!

Cool pants and a $6.00 Rat

" Coat of many colors that my Mama made for me" Nice pic.

I haven't mastered the rubber band trick that you use yet.

I likely had one in my boot or an SOB holster in that picture.

It was the 70's!

Yep stripes or plaid like I wore in those day is what the cool kids wore.

I don't know, man...I had an eerily similar pair of pants from about that same era. and strangely enough, I was about the same age as you in the pic. (I was maybe a couple years older.)

your Mom shop at K-Mart back in the day?

[both of our moms should have been cited for child abuse]

Nope I don't think we got a K Mart here until probably 1980 or so but they could have been a hand me down from some rich kid who's Mom shopped at the K Mart.

HA!

Sears mail order then it was those pants came from.

at least there is no patch beside a patch
or heavens forbid
a patch on a patch
cause that's poverty
