The Everitt Family, Easton, Pa., April 8, 1917

The Everitt Family, Easton, Pa., April 8, 1917
A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of piercing, unusual, or distinctive eyes (a photo featuring someone or something with expressive eye; the eyes can belong to people, animals, or face-like objects).

Embossed at lower right: "Felker's Studio, Easton, Pa."

Handwritten name and date on the back of this real photo postcard: "Harry Johnson Everitt. April 8th, 1917."

With their frowns and staring eyes, this family doesn't appear to be enjoying their photo session. I'm not sure if Harry Johnson Everitt is the name of the father or the son.

Xata, Billathon, John FitzGerald, Smiley Derleth have particularly liked this photo

haha. A definite shoe-in for Vintage Miserable Family, Alan! Thanks for adding.
You've definitely got a group "piercing, unusual, or distinctive eyes" shot! At first I thought the mom was the winner, but that little boy...whew!
So odd, so perfect!

Now that's a striking photo.

Wow, those expressions are amazing! You could invent so many stories from this photo. The mother’s look of pained resignation, the blind terror in the child’s eyes. Best of all, for me, is the hostile glare of the father. What a happy bunch!

Thanks, everybody, for the comments and likes! "Glum" is what comes to my mind when I look at this photo. I think Deborah's correct that the boy is the winner of the piercing eyes contest, though I do like how the father's and son's expressions seem to match so closely. And Bill's interpretation of eyes full of pain, terror, and hostility is quite interesting, too!
