Professor Pennington's Experiments in Time Travel No.1 [GUESS THE YEAR - WIN 3 SBD]
3 SBD PRIZE for the first person to guess the correct year of the photograph below.
Hello, I'm Professor Pennington.
I'm a bit of an eccentric inventor, mad scientist sort of chap.
I'm sure you know the sort.
Recently I've been working on something super top secret.
And finally I've got it working - well almost anyway 😊
It's a time machine.
That surprised you didn't it? I'm not sure you believe me do you?
Well I have proof.
I do have a little problem though with the machine at the moment. The Reverse Chronometer Display Diode keeps blowing up!
It's nothing serious, just a few bangs and sparks. I'm sure I'll get it fixed soon.
But it does mean I can't tell what year I travelled back to you.
And there is one other rather big problem...
I get in the machine, set the dial, press the button and... pooof. Twenty four hours later I am back in the lab and I can't remember a thing. Eventually the memory comes back but it takes a while.
So this last trip I took a camera with me. Unfortunately only one picture came out.
Here it is. I seem to have met some lovely young ladies at a school.
Can you guess what year I travelled to?

Thank you everyone for your help with calibrating my time machine. I've now managed to enhance the photograph and the year was 1946.
Congratulations to @knowledge-seeker for being the first person to correctly guess the year.

1954, my father's birth year.
Thank you for your entry @hethur240. You were close but not quite there.
1983, go random number!
Thank you for your entry and the resteeem. You are also too recent.
1955, the bottom right girl looks like my mom!
Thank you for entering @wholesomeroots. Wow did I meet your mother on my time travels?
1949?
My guess is the Class of 1938
Thank you for entering @overthewait. Sorry you were a wee bit too old on this one.
1972 maybe
judging the hairstyle
Thank you for your entry and the resteem. Unfortunately you are not correct. You are a bit too recent.
Impressive work.
this looks like a black and white picture so I'll guess 1942 the year my mother was born :)
Hi @freakygeak. Thank you for entering. You were close, but no cigar.
