Another studio portrait taken of my grandmother and a relative\/friend that I restored over the weekend. As I zoomed in to fix\u00a0the creases and dust specks, I noticed that she was wearing pince-nez with a chain attached.

I don’t care what people say about their layers of uncomfortable clothing – they had style! The original scan of the photo is behind the cut.\u00a0<\/p>\n
