Vintage SCA Photos

Whoa. Several of you have had a look here already. Way trippy. Spotted El, a rakish Speth, a great picture of Ferd and Ianthe, a certain knight you might recognize, and a sweet coronation moment. People who were actually around then would probably recognize quite a few more...

Spotted El

Thank god for heraldry. I'm not sure I would have recognized him. The guy in that photo looks... tough.

Who is the man
That would risk his neck for his brother man?
(El!)
Can ya dig it?

Who's the cat that won't cop out
When there's danger all about
(El!)
Right on

You see this cat El is a bad mother--
(Shut your mouth)
But I'm talkin' about El
(Then we can dig it)

...a rakish Speth
Love the 70s sunglasses with the Elizabethan. The picture that follows is not as rakish, but sweeter.

That's my gambeson, that's my helm, that's my hockey gloves. I just don't recognize the shield, the opponent, or the site.

Geez, we were all so skinny back then. And the hair!

I'm slightly creeped by some of these pictures being labeled "vintage" such as the one of Sebastian on the stilts (Hey! I remember that! It can't be old!).
I really ought to sit down this afternoon & see which shots I can contribute labels to. What a great site!!

a certain knight you might recognize

At least two: Duke Sir Akbar and Earl Sir Leaghaire.

I keep going back to look at the picture of Fernando. The glower, it never changes. ;)
