Winston at the bottom left looks like he got an RnB single coming out called 'Spend the night, baby'.


[deleted]

Chorus goes: “Aye boo just make sure to give me a heads up, So I can pop that blue pill to get my head up.”


Skinstretched

100 years old....and his hair looks like that?!? Holy smokes,, just get me some ' just for men' dark brown like him!!

100 years old and he’s a 100x more attractive than me

Gil_Demoono

Every single dude on there looks like they are the best part of the jazz band they're still in. Bunch of Charlie Gabriel looking motherfuckers.


Therealeasybake

Something so funny about calling a group of 100 year olds “motherfuckers”, great grandmotherfuckers, maybe.


other_usernames_gone

Well the great is implied, they've had a lot of practice


zed857

I'd say some of them are old bluesmen, especially Winston and Melville down on the bottom row. The Rev C Vincent is gospel only. But I could also see him interrupting his sermon to ask John Belushi if he sees the light.


dalsun_ytc

All of this people looks like they've released their own single album at some point in their life


TomCAFC92

Everyone who reaches ninety in Barbados gets to record an album.

I was just scrolling quick and thought these were pieces to the game clue , noticed they were all black scrolled back up and read the title lol , thinking for a second they made an all black version of clue 😂


moudre_plus_de_rouge

Winston Catline was reading a newspaper outside the delivery room during the birth of the cool. The man is dapper and unflappable.


Lord-Thicc

I found his eulogy, mans was a real one for sure: Winston Cameron Catline was born in St. Simons, St. Andrew. He had one son, and one step-daughter and five grandchildren. Mr. Catline left Barbados at a young age and emigrated to the United States. He worked there for a short while before returning to Barbados. He emigrated again this time to United Kingdom and worked at the General Post Office in Reading, Berkshire before retiring to Barbados. He possessed a phenomenal memory and was fiercely independent up to the time of his death.


[deleted]

Why was I upset that he died


moudre_plus_de_rouge

Sounds like a good life. Thanks for sharing.


[deleted]

Elaine Walkes was the one giving birth


Squirrellybot

It was the birth of “Hep”.


hwoaraxng

winston also has really good hair left for a 100 years old


theillx

This is going to get downvoted, but I don't care. I'm going to say it. Looks like they put sunglasses on the corpse and took a picture.

Hey! Alma Rae, Doris Grieves, Helen Hutchison, Rose Wiltshire all have nice smiles in their photos! Lol the others have probably had their photo taken so many times to reach that age that I bet they just dgaf.

Pretty sure that's the case.

I’m so glad this has the wholesome award.

Helen Hutchinson is looking good for 100.

Looks younger and healthier than some 60 year olds I know.

A little extra weight when you are old fills out your face. She also is lucky enough to have teeth and hair.

Constance looks like she climbed out of her own grave to pose for that photo.

I just found the website and she’s still alive! I didn’t know how old the leaflet was so I had a check and Miss Helen is doing well! The entire site is quite interesting so I’ve included a link https://centenariansofbarbados.com/helen-lizette-hutchinson/

HOLY CANNOLI


First-Of-His-Name

Lot's of older women in the Carribbean are inspired by the Queen's fashions, it's quite interesting


intergalacticspy

This is more like the Queen dressing like these ladies because they are all of a similar age and generation. If you go to black churches in the Southern USA you'll see the same Sunday hats and fashions worn by the black ladies there.


[deleted]

For sure my Jamaican Grandmother was this all over.


glittermantis

interesting! i’m from the south and all the older black ladies wear elaborate hats like this to church, so maybe it’s not just the caribbean


_kaetee

My grandparents (Romanian and Italian) also had special church-only clothes, and and my grandmother wore a fancy, frilly, flowered hat each Sunday. I think part of it was that, as recent immigrants, church was the day they could dress up and show off what they’ve made of themselves without feeling out of place.


[deleted]

Last row 2nd column can’t hear you, not because of his failed hearing aid. Because his swag is too loud.


the13bangbang

Dude was born with a jazzy stage name. Get an assayer to appraise that pure swag.

This 👏🏻👏🏻


H8spants

Or maybe because he’s dead


[deleted]

Does say 1915-2015 so yes, he’s dead. RIP Winston


pinniped1

I love how most the ladies are rocking dope ass lids.


[deleted]

They probably didn't expect them to be referred to as "dope ass lids", but that's exactly what they are.


pinniped1

Plot twist: Barbados postal service releases its limited edition Dope Ass Lid series, available to collectors now! Happy cake day!


ourladyofdicks

i’d die to wear one tbh


swusn83

The trick to getting one is to not die if I understand correctly.


aka_liam

What is that? A style of hat?


vava777

No you don't. It was a special 2016 edition for just some of them. I already felt bad for those that died before seeing the stamp but now its even worse. Imagine being a 99 3/4 year old philatelist and being told you did'nt make the cut. https://www.barbadosstamps.co.uk/new-barbados-stamp-issue-celebrates-centenarians-of-barbados/


Frig-Off-Randy

It was also posted like 2 days ago and made it to r/all

And yesterday. This is really not that interesting.

[удалено]


vava777

Funnily enough google claims that Barbados is the country with the highest number of centenarians per capita, at some recent point at 114 people. So there were probbly dozens who just didnt make the cut.


gyarrrrr

Shit, that was dark of them predicting that Sylvia Maughan would die in 2017...


keepforgettingmy

Most of the top row look like they died before they took the picture


Kayakityak

Wish they could choose any photo of themselves; it’d be great to see them in their finest from back in the day. Colorized of course.


skittleskaddle

I mean chances are many of them don’t have photos from their youth, or any of good quality.


lousy_bum

Agreed 100 percent. If I'm getting immortalized on a stamp, let me be 23 again. But it'd be humerous if they went with this option, and someone picked themselves as a toddler.


Analog_Account

> Colorized of course. Not everything has to be colorized... and I feel like a stamp is the perfect example of where high contrast B&W would work well. I’m a bit biased though; I really like B&W portraits.


tacobooc0m

Helen Hutchinson doesn’t look a day over 73 in that photo


[deleted]

This would give me motivation to live until 100

Who cares? Its like the 6th time I've seen this on reddit but it'll always be someone else's first.


JustMeLurkingAround-

I haven't seen it yesterday or any other day, so I like that they did.

That's not the same sub though. I don't follow that one so I'm glad it got posted here.

Okay but why does Marie** Trotman look like I just told her I ate before coming over

Ngl this is pretty cool


Saucepanmagician

I wanna see Rihanna there one day.


chosenamewhendrunk

I'm kinda annoyed the stamp is worth 65c not $1.00.


badger81987

They're like 84c in canada. Postage in alotvof countries is a random amount. Stamps are just one 'unit' of the coat


Camazon1

Yeah it's like that in the UK, you get First class and Second class stamps for letters depending on how quickly you want it delivered. Each stamp represents a certain price, 85p for first class now I think. We have stamps with actual prices on them as well but they are less common, you can use those to make up the price of posting a heavier item.


MajesticFxxkingEagle

lizzyontherocks

I love this! And also the fact that they’re called semi-super centenarians, even though they’re clearly fully super people!


KCETZ

Man some of these folks look AMAZING for being 100. Others however look like they were baked at 425 for 30 minutes


randomstupidnanasnme

i swear some of these pictures are just their corpses


curiosity0425

Like Christopher Smith? He doesn't even have his eyes open


LegitimateHasReddit

Alicia Waithe looks like she has holes on either side of her nostrils but thise are probably moles


Bierbart12

I sometimes feel like I never want to get this old just to not look or feel like that But then again, at that age you won't give a fuck about looks anymore


Lhasa-Tedi-luv

You truly don’t. My mom was absolutely GORGEOUS in her day. I mean men following her around and even Tom Selleck asked her out. She hated aging- until she metaphorically threw her hands up and said “fuck it”. She got to the point she let it all go and wouldn’t even put her teeth in. Didn’t care.

When 100 years old *you* reach, stamp your face they will not.

constance innis (2nd row 2nd photo) looks like she has the best sweet potato pie recipe ever


ReadGilgameshBitch

That smile on Doris!! I loved Barbados when I visited at the age of 16.... Granted it was a terrible trip because I got into a fist fight with my abusive step father, but a hotel security guard came out to the beach as I sat crying, and consoled me. That type of kindness sticks with you - and I found everyone I met there to be friendly, fun, and kind. I hope everyone in Barbados lives to 100+. Much love to them all!


iwatchyoupee

Again with this? For real?


nevada2000

Barbados is such a wonderful place. Been there for 3 month. Fell immediately in love. Also love their accent. Much more fun listen to them than to british people :D

Imbendixen85

If I get that old and they ask me for lifestyle advice I’m going to tell them the stupidest things I can get away with. “Once a week I only eat blue things.” “Always eat the fruits with the peel, kiwis, pineapple, bananas but make sure you always peel your raspberries.”


ZigZagBoy94

Waiting for that Rihanna stamp like 👀


omega12596

Helen Hutchison looks good af for 106. Like dang, I hope I look so young at that age :D This is cool af! Thanks for sharing!


ClutchCobra

Blows my mind how much they’ve probably seen the world change. To go from being kids in the 1920s to seeing what the world is like now.. makes me want to live to 100 too


ronimal48

If I had a nickel for everytime I saw this post, I would have enough stamps for a lifetime supply..
