So apparently Huckleberry Hound once went by Huck. Which makes sense, but feels weird.

This was one is a bit blurry, but I wanted to share it anyway. Again, no context to it.

Another from the batch of old photos.

So I purchased a Ziploc bag full of old photos some time ago. And I finally started going through them. There is no context for them, for the most part, though there are occasionally dates on the back. Anyone who sees these who can give any information on them would be greatly appreciated. All I know about this one is that the individual is apparently named Ruth Benjamin, according to the back of the photo. Others in the batch are dated, with dates ranging from 1955 to 1970, at least. I just liked this one and considered it a good one to begin with.
