The year was 1935, and he was born in 1934; so he was 1 year old. It's really weird, the idea of a mother giving a signed photo to a 1 year old. But, if you want to say that she waited until he was older and then gave him an old photo of herself (when she was young) it's still weird. This is what I just wrote to John Armstrong about it:
Well, it makes me laugh. How old does a boy have to be before he values and appreciates a
signed picture from his mother? My answer is: no age. He never reaches such an age. Did
your mother give you a signed picture of herself? Has your wife given such a picture to your
children? My mother never gave me such a picture, and I have never met anyone who said
that their mother did. Even the caption is weird.: To Robert with all my love? All? That sounds
downright romantic. Nope. I'm just not buying it.
