Dimitri, being absent for some days, I now see that you started your restoration work of your old family photos. You are very successful and I think that, as I proposed to you some days ago, you could, perhaps, start a web page exposing all the old photo material you have. It should be very interesting.

 

Warm regards

A very interesting picture:

 

Mr T is like an ottaman (sir= beyefendi) with his stockings, 'nargile', and 'şalvar';

Where did it capture?

 

Do you still use 'şalvar', Dimitris.. OB

Hi Ozgur my friend, Mr T my grandfather, was born in Kyrenia and he had many Turkish friends there he also spoke fluent Turkish. The picture was taken in the late 20's early 30's.

He is dressed in Turkish traditional clothes which he wore on carnival day. Those clothes are similar to the Greek Cypriot traditional clothes and which also include a salvar. The only difference is that the salvar is black. Many regards, Dimitris.
