It is the photograph itself of a family member! No question! No matter what camera used and or subjects we may shoot during our lives professionally or as an avid amateur. The most important for each of us are the images we shoot of our families. These are the records for future family members for years to come. "The family album" as such is the first thing many humans think of when a fire occurs in their home! Get the family album and the other stuff later. That is a cry most often heard by fire fighters than nearly any other phrase.... "The family Album!" So your photograph with all it's wonderful memories, makes' it a priceless part of your family for years and years to come. I think we should all be so lucky to have photo records that go back like yours. cheers, ted
