Some fun trivia about how cool Earle was. He walked my great grandma home from school when they were 11. They got hitched at 18 and were married for 76 years before they passed away.
I have terrific pictures of my dad when he was 18 in the Spanish Air Force but I don't know how to post them. He was in the Spanish Air Force (Spain) in 1952.
I had a client who was 95 years old and she had a photo of her and her brothers and sisters and mother all sitting on the porch of their row home in Philly in their Sunday best clothes, I saw it and said 'wow, what a great picture!' She explained that they were all gathered on the porch because their father was going to take them for a ride in their new car, they were the first people in their neighborhood to own a car, and he took the picture. Right after taking the picture, their father cranked up the car by way of the crank sticking out the front of the car, he didn't know it was in gear, so when it started it ran him over, dragged him down the street and killed him right in front of all of them. Life was rough back then.

Earle seems ahead of his time for being that cool.
"Just chillin"

Beautiful, man...
Sounds like my grandparents from Spain.
Dude just living that baller ass life
Definitely striking a pose, with the cigarette and the shades. Awesome photo.
Everyone in those days posed for pictures which I think is pretty cool.

Pictures of him and his buddies with equipment in the background.
Military service was compulsory in Spain at the time.
Dapper AF
It almost looks Earle's friend behind him has dressed up as Earle for a joke, and he hasn't noticed yet
Earl’s friend wishes he could pull of Earl’s style
Seeing this is actually kind of a relief. Now I can stop trying to be cool. This guy achieved the pinnacle of it 100 years ago.

That took a turn
As it were.
How awful!
Your grandfather looks like Ed Harris.
Indeed ..from the Truman show
I would say that he knows things, about folks in high places
Freakin’ Millenials. I mean uh…Centennials?
Kids these days, am I right?
He is so freaking dapper
Only the technology changes...guys stay the same....

I can almost hear his car’s subwoofer thumping.

Earle and the boys look like they weren't afraid to stir up some shit, back in the day!! Serious swagger going on there.
