Pictures = 1000 Words: Ray Krolicki & Jacqwyn Moynahan

 "A picture is worth a thousand words" is an English language adage meaning that complex and sometimes multiple ideas can be conveyed by a single still photograph. 

When I received the wonderful photo below (taken in August 1941, Santa Monica) of  Ray Krolicki (1920-1986) and Jacqwyn Mary Moynahan (1918-1994) from the Muras-Woeber-Moynahan photo collection, my first reaction was "Ray has two legs!"

With thanks to Zelda (Moynahan) Woeber (1901-2002), the reverse side of the photograph contained over one hundred words explaining the circumstances of this photo. That led me to research some more details not previously known!
