All right, here's my contribution. Everyone's pictures are so good!

We did a performance at a Christmas party on Saturday, and took pictures in the lobby afterwards. Forgot to get a pic with my hubby in front of the tree, so I guess it's just the girls for this contest!

This is such a wonderful photo! You do have a Judy Garland look!

That looks pretty "Dead On" to me! Great photo! :eusa_clap

Hoppin' freight home for the holidays . . .

This is a part of the 1930s Holiday Season which a lot of folks forget . . .
The "good ol' days" weren't always so good.

I took this photo this morning- Santa arriving in Quakertown, PA via 1948 diesel locomotive. I'll try to get some more personal photos ASAP (if I can still fit into anything vintage!)

There are some good faux-vintage photos in the holiday decor thread. You cannot tell they are modern, except for being in color.

Never did understand why Quakertown never gets a steam locomotive?? They DO have the means, since the staion has been restored for about two years now, and they're friends with the people who own them at Kemton, Strasburg, etc. Sad that Quakertown doesn't have much of a historical preservation mindset, we know the folks who own Sine's VERY well. Bill says its been like that for YEARS,...too sad. I can't bring myself to buy the Quakertown history book they have out now, I just cant bare to see the photos of what used to be and to know what is there and not there now.

Diesels are nice, but you can't beat the old steam power! My husband's father used to take him down to the tracks back home,...his father used to know some of the old timers there. he's been around trains for years when he was a kid,...got sick of them actually,...LOL!!! well, he still loves them though!!

I tell ya, give a man a little judging power, and now he calls the shots!

Since Judge Mingoslim requested it, here it is, the second prize of Vintage Betty's Holiday Contest!

Vintage Tie Tac with very cool Roman Hat!

Remember, for each 10 PEOPLE entering the contest, Vintage Betty rounds up another prize! Everyone's photos are looking great and it will be SOOOO hard to choose!
