Chester Pratt. Private Collection
Chester Pratt had an attitude in this photograph, didn’t he? Was he mad at at the photographer? Did he have a bad day, or was he just showing pride? Who knows, but there’s everything to love about this photograph.

Later in life he became a vicar and a reverend, and authored a religious book. He suddenly passed in November 1952. A more in-depth post update on him here.
