The Crisis (Tom Kennelly)




This is one of those photos in which the back is more interesting than the front. In this case, the back is extremely interesting -- a mystery. Intrigue. Fodder for the imagination.

The front shows a young man standing in the woods. He is smiling. The front is stamped NOV 58.

The back, however, is the best part.

In handwritten pencil it says:

Tom
Kennelley
Nov. 24, 1958

The, under that, in blue ballpoint pen:

Jan 16, 19
The crisis  ["crisis" is a bit bungled, as if on the verge of misspelled; the line is crossed out]
