Date This Photo
by Esther Emery
Here’s a MOXIE highlighting those baby blues in her senior year portrait. How jealous were you of that blue fuzzy thing? And who killed it?

Put the year you think this photo was taken in the comments. Extra points for the name of the MOXIE, and extra, extra points for where in America you think it was taken.
Good luck!
Alright… my guess is the lovely JB-Jizzle in…. hmm… 1988. In..ooh that’s a toughie…based on the feathers… somewhere in Michigan.
There is no doubt that is JBG.
ummm, for date maybe 1990?
ummm, for place maybe Xanadu? Le Cage aux Folles? or maybe Ohio?
E – I love that you’re unearthing these photos and challenging peeps to guess!! I was just at home, and I saw my entire sr picture spread… HAHAHAHAHAH. Yeah, that’s what it did to me.
I think that the picture is in some small town… but since I don’t know all the Moxies, I can’t give a precise area… or name, for that matter.
My guess is 1987, JBG…my question is…are your wearing that or did the photographer have it as a prop?
Definitely JBG – and I’m thinking 1990. Based only on that it looks like a senior pic and I think she may have graduated a year later than me. But, it could be 1989. Somewhere in northern California? Think we could get a bunch of those feather/fur thingies for our next MOXIE photo session?
YAY Senior Pictures…I have spent many afternoons arranging these wraps on the young women… The girls hated it! But the moms loved to see their angels in the fur wraps. I’ll see if I can collect some for our next staff meeting.
JBG ’89 holy cow I have no idea where…
JBG 1988
I think she’s from Northern CA but could be anywhere USA especially New Jersey
OK, it’s me. In 1987. (Good call JT! I graduated in ’88, but senior pics are taken in the fall.) In a very small town (Noelle) in Northern California (Jo and D) called Morgan Hill. The furry blue wrap was the photographer’s (Chelsea) indeed, but I do now own a cropped blue furry jacket that is the same color. Maybe I’ll wear it to the next staff meeting.
I gave up on that failed come-hither glance long ago, but here’s what I find really funny about this photo: everyone is always asking Missy and me if we’re sisters. Judging from her photo and mine, I doubt anyone would have asked the same back in the late ’80′s…
