The good old days ?
I am just helping a mate tidy up his Dad`s place due to the poor old boy being struck with oldtimers disease and having to go into care. Anyway, I noticed a few photos on the walls featuring deer, pigs, chams etc and ask about them.
Turns out that the old fella was a deer hunter/culler for a while and has a heap of old pics. I asked if I could share some around, so for a starter, here is a rougues gallery shot. The guys son is fairly sure it was in Te Urewera but doesn't know the people in it apart from Dad.
Dad is Roy Bernhard. The ears represent a mornings work according to family myth.

Does anyone recognise a face ? It would be great to put them back in touch.

Old timers disease, I got a bit of that, but still got my ears on! Some of these guys have lead extremely interesting life's, pity more notes aren't written down

Good pic. Would be intresting to find out who these dudes are.

Fantastic slice of history Pengy.

Cheers for sharing that Pengy. I like seeing photos from those days.

Cool. There are lots more where that came from. Unfortunately they have been stuck into a self adhesive album so have to be removed very gently for scanning.
Be patient . More to follow

Did any one count the ears ?

The album I have access to has a shed load of much older black and whites, but unfortunately they don't want to come out un damaged. I will try and find a way of scanning the entire page(s)
