Could these men be father and son?
« on: Tuesday 12 June 12 09:48 BST (UK) »
Could these men be father and son? All I am after is an opinion: probably yes, or probably no.

Both men are in their fifties: the "father's" photo is from the mid 1930s, the "son's" from the mid 1960s.

Thanks.

I am certainly no expert, but they seem to have several physical similarities.

Pretty fair bet I would reckon - they share the same hairline and set of eyes is the same - deep set with bushy brows, the nose is very similar as is the jawline .  I would vote Yes.

Cheers

I think there is a relationship between these two men...there are facial similarities. This photo seems familiar to me...Have we seen it before?

I would say probably yes, for the same reasons already given.

I would say they were at least very closely related, so yes.
