A big fish! A muskie! I purchased this photo at the Antique Shop with the Ice Cream in Motley Minnesota. I looked at the sign in back of the fisherman..and I could not figure out what it says. It could be the name of a resort??
Ray or Roy Brinkley or Burkley.. the snapshot is stamped Something? Photo 1948. I wrote Muskie on the back of the photo to identify the fish.
Thanks for stopping by, do come again:)
Ray Buckley? :)
ReplyDeleteThe stamp looks like "Brown Photo Service" and the year, 1948
ReplyDeleteCould Muskie (or Musky) Bay be the first part?
ReplyDeleteThe guy is very thin. I don't think he can hold up that muskie much longer.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Just Stuff! The man is almost as skinny as the fish!
ReplyDeleteWow your writing is so very much close to my heart. Impressing blog and lovely pictures, very inspirational. congrats.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Brikley as I noticed a dot above the letters which would signify an I to me.
ReplyDeleteI think the sign says "Musky Bay" but can't piece together anything more than that.
ReplyDeleteLOL? Land of Lakes? Minnesota?
Given its sportsfishing - Mr. Brinkley (or whatever it is) could have been from just about anywhere.
Pretty sure it says Musky Bay. Google has a lot of Musky Bays, so it could be almost anywhere in Wisconsin, Michigan, or southern Canada. Can't come up with anything for LOL--
