Interesting that even in 1939, those crossties look to be hand-hewn rather than sawn in a mill. Neat photo, thank you!

From today's Guardian newspaper
San Andres Itzapa, Guatemala
Candles with images of the folk saint Maximón burn inside a church on his feast day. Maximón is worshipped by Mayans in the highlands of western Guatemala. He is portrayed as a human character who likes alcohol and cigarettes

Why is the jester wearing pepperoni pants?

When I posted that about the diaper pin I figured there would be some newbies born in the paper diaper era who would ask what's a diaper pin?

I thought that guy on the right might be a Gaucho.
