Mable, Harry and Friend

Thank goodness there are notes on the back of this photo — "Harry & Mable" — otherwise I would never have known. The dog is unidentified.

No date, but I have a feeling that this is later than most of the photos we've been looking at. A little hasty research suggests that asphalt siding was particularly popular in the 1940s and into the 1950s (though once put on a house it could stay there for decades).
