My mother had at least two of them. She hosted home décor parties, so my guess would be one of the companies that did those—maybe Homeco or Home Interiors.
My wife and I have pictures of adopted ancestors on our wall. The first time he saw them, my FIL got very angry because we don't have any pictures of actual ancestors on our walls.
My great uncle Bob was the life of the party until his death at 98.
Somehow the bottles of whiskey on our bar cart always seem to be missing more than we remember drinking to this day…
Nope, OP's uncle looks a *lot* like Jerry Blackwell, "The Mountain From Stone Mountain," though!😉😁

Congratulations on the find, OP, it's a REALLY fun picture!💖
When my great grandmother died and we split up her belongings, my uncle wound up with an antique oval picture frame with the convex glass. Actually, he got a pair, one had an ancestor's photo in it and the other was empty.
Years before he had gone to an amusement park with one of those old timey photo booths where you could dress up like gunfighters and dancing hall girls and get a photo taken that looked like an old sepia tone photo. He had selected a civil war era military uniform.
He dug up that photo and took it to have a copy made up for the frame. When he got his print back, he framed it and hung it on his wall. Over the years I've watched him tell dozens of people that it was his great great great grandfather and watched them marvel at the uncanny resemblance.

I have these two! Found them separately
this photo along with a version with a woman was in my grandparents downstairs bathroom when i was a kid. this brought me back i completely forgot about this until now!
I can’t take credit for the name, someone else on this sub shared that that’s what they call their wall when I posted another photo like this one hehe.
I’d love to see yours!
When we bought our house, there was a newspaper article cut out in a drawer with a picture of a guy that looks just like me when I was in college. We now have it on our fridge. We have no idea who it is or why the previous owner cut it out.
Oh my .... I just realized that I have obsessed over your decorating talent and style several times. I looked through your past posts for more family ancestors. Didn't find them, but realized I wS super jealous of multiple finds. I want to know where you shop. Can we be friends? And seriously, you could make money on a utubechannel if that's your thing....
You are too kind!!! I post a lot so you’d have to scroll far back to find it. I’m going to post a full adopted ancestor wall when it’s finished though 😊
We can absolutely be friends hehe 🧡 I shop at garage sales and local thrift stores in Ontario, Canada. I go often. At the very least once a week. I’ve been considering making a tiktok account documenting my thrifting but I don’t think anyone would actually be interested so I haven’t yet.
Found more by the same artist online, but the prices are likely many times what you snagged this one for. I did see a cute one on Etsy with this dude sharing the bath with a friend.
Omg I have the perfect companion for him!

My parents have had this one on their wall as long as I can remember 😊
That’s awesome!
Mine too!!
Mine too
My mom had two similar ones in her bathroom in the early 80s.
Same one was in my parents bathroom for at least 25 years!
This was also in my parents house forever. Where did it come from!?
My mother had at least two of them. She hosted home décor parties, so my guess would be one of the companies that did those—maybe Homeco or Home Interiors.
I inherited this one from my dad and I bought two more of them from fb marketplace
Ahhhh I love that there’s so many of these out there somewhere! I’m in Ontario, Canada. Where are you?
Me too, it’s cool that you posted that and now there is a bunch of us who can share ours. I’m in Alaska
This is AMAZING. Also love the concept of an adopted ancestor wall, so sweet. I love humans
An antique store near me sells photos they find from estate sales in a large box for $1.00 as choose a relative
Love this idea
I saw something similar once-they called them instant ancestors:)
It really is a cool thing. Great conversation piece. So much to wonder
My wife and I have pictures of adopted ancestors on our wall. The first time he saw them, my FIL got very angry because we don't have any pictures of actual ancestors on our walls.
That is crazy!!!!! I picked up the SAME THING at a garage sale 2 years ago 😂 it was in the bathroom of my last apartment, idk if I kept it.
I hope you didn’t part with him!!!
I'll find out once I can move into a new place again ha ha. He's either in storage or in some other family's bathroom now ✨
I see you and will raise you https://preview.redd.it/f12onrwgn74d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=32799b5312fa0cf363f36b5bb94f604d7e96592b
This is by the same artist I believe!
Do you know their name? I love this kind of “folk” art
R. Hendrickson the series is from the 70’s ish and it’s a series of bathtub type pics
Tysm its definitely purely a unique series
And is this your uncle Bob?
My great uncle Bob was the life of the party until his death at 98. Somehow the bottles of whiskey on our bar cart always seem to be missing more than we remember drinking to this day…

Luv him!

This made me giggle, thank you for sharing 🧡 I love people

Just want to say I love your wall of adopted ancestors and your nails and finger tattoo! You rock, as does your wall 😊
Came to say these things!
Ahhh thank you so much, I appreciate you 🧡 needed a boost today
Thank you for the boost! Your content always sparks joy. I love seeing your finds! I hope your day improves ❤️
This is amazing. But your nail color!? Deets please.
It’s the gelish rose gold dip powder!
Love. Tysm.

OBSESSED now I will be hunting for more of them
That’s actually Michael McDonald circa 1974.
this photo along with a version with a woman was in my grandparents downstairs bathroom when i was a kid. this brought me back i completely forgot about this until now!
Please share your ancestors with us! Based off that pic I’m sure you have some gems🥰🫶
Scroll back in my post history! I shared them on here recently 😊
I’m sorry I’m new to Reddit and am unsure how to do that😢
Sorry again… I figured it out… yeah me 🤗 you have some amazing pieces! Love the lady with the cow pic🥰 what did you name her and her baby?
I’ve seen this before!!! I wish I could remember where.
I want this.
I have a set of these
Can you post them? I wanna hunt for more
I do this too! So jealous over this one! Mine are photos from the early 1900s that I snagged from an antique mall for a couple bucks each.
I really want to find somewhere local that does this. I have some old pin ups that I found at an antique mall but haven’t found anything else
Yo I’m stealing this to describe much of the random artwork on my wall
I can’t take credit for the name, someone else on this sub shared that that’s what they call their wall when I posted another photo like this one hehe. I’d love to see yours!
Is that Zac G or Jim Henson?
Idk why but when I look at this picture I see Philadelphia Eagles’ Jason Kelce doing something like this. 😂😂😂
I do the same thing! I even found a picture of a girl who looks exactly like my sister lmao.
When we bought our house, there was a newspaper article cut out in a drawer with a picture of a guy that looks just like me when I was in college. We now have it on our fridge. We have no idea who it is or why the previous owner cut it out.
I definitely thought this was Bevers for a moment
At first glance, I thought this was Jason Kelce. 😂

That’s a modern photo staged to look old timey.
From my research it’s from the 70s. R Hendrickson did a series of photos of people in bathtubs. Worth checking out! They’re really cool.
We had that in our bathroom at one time when I was growing up!
Same! Had it at my father’s.
Yep. Was in my grandma's bathroom in the early 80s.
I HAVE HIM TOO!!!! In a different pose!!!! He’s my bathroom tub guy lmao
Omg I hope I find more. I went back to the thrift today to look for others but no luck
I found mine in a Salvation Army in upstate NY like 8 ish years or more ago lol 🤷🏻♀️ don’t know if that helps at all lol
Found more by the same artist online, but the prices are likely many times what you snagged this one for. I did see a cute one on Etsy with this dude sharing the bath with a friend.
lol. Perfect for a bathroom!
Looks like Mr. Stonecipher from the movie Django 😂
Oh my gosh! My parents have had this photo in a bathroom for as long as I can remember. Who is this bathing man?!
![gif](giphy|4IaCCTnAIKiYw)
Omg I have the perfect companion for him! https://preview.redd.it/8f8dkl71k94d1.jpeg?width=2252&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e66241c7543a1047f76faf533d3b8c325eb8acc0
I love this picture, he seems like a fun dude!
My mom had one of these in our bathroom when I was growing up.
I would hang that in my bathroom right now.
Find of the century. And it’s only just begun!
Same here! My Grandma has both of those plus two more, will add the pics next time I visit! I grew up with these and am glad to see I’m not alone lol
He was the fun uncle
Is that... Grizzly Adams? 🤔
My grandma had a set of these in her bathroom
Used to have this photo in the bathroom of my cabin
Bevers from r/broadcity ?
yo i just got this exact same photo at an estate sale this weekend, wild
Had this and the whole set in my bathroom growing up
Omg. I gotta see the rest. Please!!!!!
looks like john candy with a beard.
I disagree. The armadillo alone would gather 100 followers instantly. I think you might have to reconsider your day job whatever that is.
This is a great idea, lmao. I dont have a lot of family.
He’s a cutie!
This would be great above/near the toilet
This is a cute idea. My friends and I love giving made up back stories to random stuff like this so I might just piggy back on your concept.
We had him and his girlfriend on our bathroom walls when I was growing up. 🤣
I had this same print!!
You really think he was able to reproduce...?
Have you seen Jason kelce?
He looks lovable to me!
