So, I was cleaning out some things from my parents house and came across these. Mom held on to everything, but when I found these in a box, I could not believe how good of condition they are in still.

Couldn't help but notice Andy right there in the picture. Mom was a fan of him from this point on.

What a treasure!! I would try to make sure they are preserved. The bottom right (and probably the picture above it) is of Andy’s first wife Barbara Edwards. They performed together in the play for a number of years. I think 1952 was the last year they were in the it. What a great find!!!!

Floyd I think you should bump this over to the main forum.

I think the actor standing with Barbara may be RG Armstrong. He had a long and prolific career in acting - a very recognizable face. He and Andy were lifelong friends and he appeared in the 2 part episode of Matlock that was filmed in Manteo. It is titled “The Hunting Party.” It’s a hoot to watch!
