A tiny remnant of our friendship

By C.E. Ryan

1″ x 2.5″ photo strip. Private Collection.

Those tiny photo strips feel so fragile in hand. One wonders how they survived a hundred years without being destroyed. I love these two. Obviously they were quite close. Yet we don’t know their names or a shred of their lives.

  I remember doing a photomaton with my best friend when we were 15. Unfortunately it got lost! These two are cute together. :)
