and then ... what better way to record the day of a lifetime than pose for a picture at the behest of the black-clad man with the iconograph who took the happy family and promised a framed , coloured picture , sent right to their home , for a mere three dollars , pandp included , one dollar deposit to cover expenses , if you would be so good , sir , and may i say what wonderful children you have there , madam , they are a credit to you and no mistake , oh , and did i say that if you are not delighted with the framed picture then send no further money and we shall say no more about it ?
