CasaDelSol from the "Who is the oldest (by class year) poster on TexAgs?" requested I post some of the pictures I took during my time in class at A&M. Here are a few. I will post more once I scan them. I also have some from the war I'll post at some point as well. These are the ones I could find. I'm sure I have more that probably won't be found until long after I'm gone.

Enjoy.

Do you remember what type of camera you used?

Also, forgive my ignorance, did many students have cameras?

thanks for posting the photos. My dad was class of '41 so that was his era. We actually have some photos, etc. from my granddad's days (class of '17)

very, very cool.

1. men wearing hats is definitely ol' Army

2. is the 2nd photo developed backwards? It looks like there's a press box on the student side - or else I'm looking at it cross-eyed!

the t-sippers had a lot of empty seats as well.

Yep

1. Uncover is BS - Look at those campaign covers!
2. Mr. 1944, were you 18 when you entered Texas A&M like students are today? Or were admissions different back then? I mean I know Ive seen the really old admissions that said 16, white and free of disease. But yeah I dont know what the admissions were like in the 40s.

Furthermore I thank you for taking the time to post these pictures.
