Some Stark family fun facts!
Apparently the boarding school Tony attended was Phillips Academy in Andover, MA from 1977 to 1984 (according to his SHIELD files). Now, from what I’ve read they don’t wear uniforms (only to sports games) so I pretty much improvised Tony’s clothing inspired by graduation pics.
Howard was born in 1917 (he’s one year older than Steve sksks) and I’m imagining this was taken while Tony was in boarding school, so he’s somewhere around his mid-late 60s. As for Maria, there doesn’t seem to be an official date of birth for her in the MCU, however, there seems to be a general consensus that she must have been way younger than Howard (who is 53 when Tony is born).
I know the parents don’t look like John Slattery and Hope Davis and that is intentional. While I admire both actors and have nothing against their versions, I kinda like to diverge from MCU cannon when it comes to my vision of Tony’s parents (mostly based on 616).
