Deja Views: Where were you in ’62? On Herbert Avenue in the Beach, perhaps?

The photo above shows John Watt’s father, Jack, and sister, Christine, on Herbert Avenue on a cold February day in 1962. Photo provided by John Watt.

The image (above left) was given to me by John Watt and shows his father, Jack, and his sister, Christine, preparing to head off somewhere; presumably not the beach because it was bloody cold in February of 1962.

Where were you in ’62? Well, John was on Herbert Avenue, just a couple houses south from Hartford Avenue.

Thanks John for this wonderful photograph. I am so fond of the automobiles of this era.
