Almost Wordless Wednesday: Cabinet Card of a Young Woman

Posted by on Wednesday, 11 September, 2013

Can you help identify this woman? I have a few questions about the photo.

  • What is the approximate date the photo was taken?
  • What is the approximate age of the woman in the photo?
  • What is the photographers name? I can easily read Oscar. Is the last name Dummar?
  • It looks like a real formal photograph. What might have been the occasion for the photo?

If you have any thoughts about this photo, I would love to hear from you.

Wordless Wednesday: 1890s Cabinet Card of a baby

Posted by on Wednesday, 6 February, 2013

This is a cabinet card photo of a baby taken in the late 1890s. You can tell this by the address of the studio and when this studio was in business at that address. It is almost certainly my great Aunt Florence (Sanders) Buck.
