I remember visiting a consignment shop and loved looking at photos like these. The guy on the top left has pretty nifty jazz hands going on. I do feel sad when these types of photos are up for sale because you know someone in the family adored these types of moments on film.

Yes, they're a particular kind of ghosts, these mystery people whose loved ones lost track of their images at some point, no doubt often by becoming ghosts themselves. It's fun to wonder about the people, tho. Probably almost a hundred years ago, now.

I never thought of that, but so true!

That guy might be doing the "hee haw" gesture from It's a Wonderful Life on that woman in front of him. Think?

HAHA yes!! I can totally see that!

There are no children so I don't suppose this is a family. Are they work colleagues perhaps? The backdrop makes me wonder if they're a theatrical troupe.

Theatrical troupe seems like a good bet. That guy on the lower right maybe isn't a player himself.
