Toasting in Frankfurt Germany. Cabinet Card. Private Collection.
A group of friends toasting, one of them a soldier. The one in the middle is definitely the brother of the one sitting to the left.
I have a lifelong friend with the German last name of Kurzendoerfer who looks like he could be a descendant of the chap to the left. I showed this picture to his brother and him and got his go-ahead to post this.
A side by side. Uncanny, hm? A hundred years later and the same exact look in their eyes (and the same love for beer lol).

Sometimes I think there are no coincidences in life.

They look as if they were having a good time, perhaps he is a distant relative, you never know.

Very cool to find a pic with a sitter with such a strong resemblance to your friend. It is uncanny!
