Major in Pops' and Grams' Christening Gowns

My grandmother, Dorothy Elizabeth Otis Jones AKA "Grams", was able to keep her christening gown, along with Pops' gown. These two gowns have been passed from grandchild to grandchild so that pictures of the great grandchildren could be taken in them. These two gowns are only a decade shy of being 100 years old! Here are Major's pictures taken in the gowns on July 29th; he was 2 1/2 weeks old.
