I like a photograph that tells a story. If you want to spice up your train display with a very interesting conversation piece, this is the ticket!! This tot is so engrossed with daydreams that nothing else matters. He is all packed up for any blizzard that might befall him, with snowsuit, gloves, and boots. The picture evokes many of the happy memories we had as young children at the sight of a toy train. I believe the picture was taken at Higbee's Department store in Cleveland, OH in approximately 1940. I wonder what he is thinking.

Higbee's is the department store in the movie "A Christmas Story." What a great movie. I wonder if the boy is the real RALPHIE. :)
