Astonishing case of Italian immigrant who died in Pennsylvania in 1941 of natural causes at a relatively young age around 40.
In the summer of 1965 his son who was too young to remember his dad wanted his remains returned to Italy.
Upon being exhumed he body was found to be in exceptionally good condition to the point where a 'viewing' could be conducted for the family at the funeral parlor where he had been prepared for burial some 24 years earlier.
These two color pictures were taken there and then the body was shipped back to his native Italy for reburial in a family plot.
