Next is an original photo taken the day of their marriage on June 10, 1927.
This next photo of Alma and Maymie may have been taken the day of the marriage. Alma and Maymie are sitting on the front bumper of the same car that is in the wedding photo. The landscape is the same. And, Alma appears to be wearing the same dress as in the marriage photo.
Not sure when this next photo of Martin and Alma would have been taken. It's a great picture of both Martin and Alma. When I think of Alma, I always remember her hats, which it seemed she always loved to wear. There is a darling hat sitting on the hood of the car just behind where Alma is sitting in the above photo.
