A Man Discovered Old Photos At The Thrift Store — And Then Looked Closer At Who Was In Them

Greg’s a young guy, still in his early 20s, but he knows his stuff when it comes to photography. He’s a snapper himself, and he takes all kinds of pictures whenever he can. Whether it’s capturing buildings, doing portraits, or taking photos for journalistic purposes, he likes to do it all.

It’s probably all that experience as a photographer that helped Greg realize this box of slides he’d discovered was important. He had an innate understanding of the immense power of photographs, so he knew these things couldn’t just be discarded. After all, they contained snapshots of a life once lived.

The images on the slides seemed old — they certainly hadn’t been taken any time recently. They must have gone back many decades, and they presented moments from some seemingly very important events in a person’s life. Some photos showed a wedding ceremony, while others depicted what appeared to be a graduation.

Events like weddings and graduations tend to be pretty precious to people, so why on Earth were these images languishing inside a thrift store? To whom had they once belonged, and where was this person now? Were they even still alive? Greg had lots of questions — and he needed to get some answers.
