Have you ever looked at a picture of somebody else, and done a double take, because it looked so much like you at that time? Wow!

Here's some appropriate Theme Music, courtesy of YouTube! Well, especially for the 1940's pictures.

I just scanned a TON of old Kappa Kappa Gamma pictures for recruitment! They're from History 2000: Kappa Kappa Gamma Through the Years.
Fraternity President Louise Little Barbeck (Southern Methodist) with her daughters (who attended Texas Christian and Southern Methodist)
I love the hair and glasses!
Beta Tau chapter at Syracuse, 1979
This is one of my favorites - they're so excited!
Convention 1966
I'm not sure what's going on here, but it's not secret - it's published in a Kappa coffee table book from Nationals. I also can't find a chapter, event or date... looks like 1920's, though?
Delta Iota at Louisiana State, 1950's
So cute! Some kind of camping trip or retreat.
Omega chapter at Kansas, 1894
1933 Grand Council at Colorado Springs, CO
I have no idea what's going on with the donkeys!
Convention 1904
I want outfits like these!
Xi chapter at Adrian in 1884
This picture cracks me up. Where did they get that huge key? And why is the one girl sticking her head through it - and looking so serious??
Epsilon Chapter at Illinois Wesleyan, 1895
Musicians? Tennis players? Scholars? All of the above!

My favorite is the woman in the center holding the banana, and the other woman who is looking like she's going to take a bite!

The one taking a bite from the banana is obviously a juggler, she's holding a juggling pin!.
Maybe they were showing their hobbies? There are a couple holding books, one holding flowers...
Or, judging from their caps, they're graduates. Maybe each item they're holding signifies their major, and the one holding the banana majored in botany? 
PS: The one holding flowers is not sitting like a lady!

FYI, in Colonial days, women who had the money to have a good dress (as opposed to just having their one everyday dress) DID sit with their knees as far apart as possible! It was their way of showing that they had the wealth to have several yards of fabric for a good skirt, along with their everyday clothes. (Thank you, Rev War Reenactor Friends!)

All I know is, if I ever sat like that, my mom would have screamed "CLOSE YOUR LEGS, WE CAN SEE YOUR UNDIES!" at me, even if I was wearing pants or a long skirt.

About the banana - I'm assuming a banana was a much more difficult thing to obtain in the 1800s? I mean, I've read enough 19th century American children's novels to know that an orange was considered a delicacy/awesome Christmas gift back in the day in many parts of America. So surely a ripe banana was even rarer? At least in Illinois?
Just guessing and wondering then what the context for the banana might be.
Historian much? lol
