Cousins


The date was Oct. 1972. The location: somewhere in Colorado. The event? A gathering Detweiler, Miller, King, Eicher 2nd Cousins. Today, nearly 40 years later, there's only one of that group of cousins still recognizable. And something tells me he was a big-eyed impostor!

    Is that "friendly Freddy" with you?? I've always wondered if he was based on a actual figure or not. 1972. WOW! I was 12 in november of that year! Great photo! Bill Smith

  2. I'm holding "Skinny Wyler", the last figure built by Mrs. Maher. I used him for a number of years before retiring him. He now resides in Vent Haven Museum.

    I can't comment on the one in the bow-tie, but I've visited this site enough to recognize his partner on the first viewing. Family fotos sure are fun!
