Nablus, circa 1955
My cousin just added this vintage photograph of the family to Facebook. My father is the third one from the left on the bottom row, and my grandfather is the man holding the baby. Everyone else in the picture are my dad’s brothers and sisters.
This photograph was taken in Nablus, Palestine, and was probably taken around 1955.

Great photo :)
Maybe you can help immortalize Palestine by adding rare Palestine photos to www.palestineremembered.com
They have photo collections for almost all the cities and villages of Palestine. Photos are added by people around the world.
