Toronto. Decades ago, LIFE magazine published photos and a brief description each issue in a column they called “Speaking of Pictures“. On pages 4 and 5 of its January 11, 1954 issue, Speaking of Pictures printed the shot shown at left.
This is a shot by LIFE photographer Fred Lyons of San Francisco of his baby son Michael crawling across the floor on a large sheet of photographic paper.
My thanks to George Dunbar once again for unearthing this delightful silhouette of a baby crawling. You can see and read the January 11, 1954 issue of LIFE courtesy of Google Books.
