Vincent on a Tricycle! Photo Friday

This image was digitized from a photograph found in a cousin's collection of family photos in Spain.  Vincent and his parents were living in New York City, and this must have been one of the photos they sent back to relatives in Spain.



The back of the photo reads "Para Tios Joaquin y Luisa y tambien para primito Joaquin. Besos, Vicentin" dated 17-11-62.   English translation "To Uncle Joaquin and Aunt Luisa and also for my little cousin Joaquin.  Kisses, Vicentin [a nickname for Vincent in Spanish]"  Dated 17-11-62 or 17 November 1962, very near Vincent's second birthday.  Which explains the shiny new tricycle!

Vincent's mother was very, very good about labeling photos.  Even those she sent to relatives.  This is a lesson for all of us!
