From the flat files of the family Burns; Minnesota, USA

Chris Burns writes: About 30 years ago my father took this photo, enlarged it, and pasted it up with tape at the local burger joint in Saint Cloud Minnesota, The Flat Iron, with the text: Buy a Daryl Burger. A Daryl burger was a burger made by the owner of the Flat Iron whose name was, of course, Daryl.

This photo belongs to my grandmother. It comes from a photo album she inherited from her aunt. Beyond that we’ve no idea where it came from. The old lady in the photograph may or may not have the same blood as me. I think she’s probably Deutsch.
