Gimme a Beer, I've Had a Rough Day

From the Schavey envelope collection.

Kenny Breyfogle 1931

Per handwritten notes on the back: "Kenny Breyfogle in stroller 1931." Little Kenny there looks as if he's bellying up to the bar, signaling to the bartender for a drink.

However, I'm not sure that's actually Kenny; or if it is, then the year is probably not 1931. Kenneth was born to Harry and Mable Breyfogle in November 1924, which would make him about 6 years old in 1931. But they had another son, Dwayne, born September 1930 — a more likely candidate to be in a stroller in 1931. So maybe that's Kenny in 1925, or Dwayne in 1931.
