This is the picture we all know as the one, two, three picture. It shows Bob with the ball, Dick with bow legs and Dorothy with her hands in her lap. On the back of one of the many photos like this it mentions Dick was two in June, Bob was one in August, and it was taken before Dorothy turned four in September of 1942.
The above picture was taken in 1986 in Lawrence, KS. On the back of the picture, it says, this is another 1,2,3 picture. Dorothy has the picture in her pocket. Bob is holding a ball, and Dick is looking bow legged. The picture was taken to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the original photograph.
This is the colorized proof of the 1,2,3 picture. Notice that Bob is in back and there is no ball.
This was taken at Dorothy and Larry's farmette near Hillsdale, Kansas. It is too bad that everyone looks like they have been run through a waffle iron. It does, however, offer the ball and the bow legs. Photo date, mid eighties.Wouldn't it be grand if Dorothy at 69, Dick at 67, and Bob at 66 (2007 dates) could do this just once more in late summer of 2008, when they would be 69, 68, and 67?
