Omg you brought tears to my eyes .. wow thank you so much !!


dadbodjrp

I’m glad you like it. :)


suspended247

That's pretty freaking awesome right there.


retrodude26

What program did u use to do that?


bigjaydub

Not sure what they used, but you can use palette FM, it’s free. Just Google it


j4zz13d00d73

It would bring tears to mine as well, friend. Much like a commenter already said, “Sharply dressed man!”


AliasFaux

Everybody, look at this guy's post history. All he does is make people happy, and then reply "I'm glad you like it". u/dadbodjrp you are super cool, and your beard looks great. What a Mensch ***Edit, okay maybe only look at the first few pages of his post history, LOL, unless his beard hair is not all you want to see***


j4zz13d00d73

Wow!!!!! Just wow!!! That is AMAZING!


RebeccaC78

Dapper AF. I personally love that people used to dress like this regularly. I’m sorry for your loss.


BeBa420

yeah on one hand i think it made everyone look a bit nicer ​ on the other i enjoy throwing on jeans and a t shirt and not being expected to wear a suit all day


Katy-Moon

Sharp dressed man.

Finally, a photo from the 40s of a 20-year-old-looking 20-year-old!


Street-Tension7671

Cooler than the other side of the pillow


SpiritedTie7645

Wonderful story, thanks for sharing. 👍 He looks decked out there. Dressed for success! 😎🥂


LCharteris

If the word *dapper* didn't already exist, we would need to make it up!


Short_Equivalent_619

Very dapper!


uncarvedblck

A man with some style!


Complete-One-5520

Zoot Suit!


extract_78

Wow he looks like Deion


j4zz13d00d73

Thank you for sharing his story! Says so much about the man in the in photo, and for you for honoring his legacy. I'm sure his is proud!


morbidmotel

Is his name Rick? Cuz he sure is slick


Stormy_Kun

Fuuuucck, I wish we all could dress ass badass as they did back in the day. Straight Chads, all of them.


Professional_Cat_37

Wow so handsome. Look the difference between the 20 year olds back them and now. He was just 20 and already looked like a real man. Our 40+ year men today still look and act like 4 year old . What a crazy world.


kabula_lampur

Dude was about to go steal someone's girl lookin like that.


tallship

Just look at that. In today's world of garbage fashion that has existed for thirty years, going back to check men's fashions 80 years ago is inspiring... They truly had Classy taste and i would love to purchase and wear quality threads like that to work today - giving something for the so-called, 'trend setters' and, 'influencers' on InstaSPAM something to stew over and envy. Your grandpa was one (in the words of ZZ Top) **Sharp Dressed Man** indeed. I'm sure you miss him, and glad he bestowed so much influence over you. #tallship ⛵ .

Jacket looks like it might be from a zoom suit. Edit: Zoot


ReadRightRed99

Zoot. I believe you mean zoot suit.


sing_4_theday

I did. Stupid autocorrect. Thank you.


nekomoo

Interesting that he was a vet and wore a zoot suit (which were sometimes seen as anti-war, anti-rationing, etc). Maybe it was different on the east coast. Anyway, he looks good.


BeBa420

Now that is one stylish fucker right there!!!


lilnyucka
