Great view of a classroom found in an Iowa/Indiana family estate. Photo measures 7 by 4+ inches. Note the white spotting over most of the photograph. There is one black student in the back of the room. I cannot identify the photograph of the man over the chalk board, possibly the Governor.

Great view of Union Station and a railroad structure nearby. The photograph measures 9 and a half by 7 and a half. Larger with the board that the photo is mounted on. Photographer not identified.

Terrible shape but couldn't pass it up. View the scan. Ink identification on the side reads A-28 1911 at Homestead Florida. Photo itself measures 7 by 5 inches.

Large mounted albumen. Photo measures 8 by 10 and board 14 by 12 inches. Corner wear to the boards but photograph is perfect. The Tennessee license plate does not have a date on it which makes it prior to 1915. Note the great Cadillac banner. The photographer is R S Patterson, Arcade, Nashville Tennessee. Notation on the back indicates that it was taken in front of the library in Nashville. The little box, scratched out with a pen area on the library door is in the photograph.. Wonder why the photographer marked it out. Pencil notation on the back says Bess Kane, Chrysler Motor Car Company.

This photo measures about 6 by 5 inches including the board. The condition speaks for itself on the scan. You may not see the line which is a separation. Dirty but not as dirty as when I found it. Faint pencil ID on the back which seems to read Hotel Waldron-Corinth Mi.

Two images which measure 7 by 5 inches, albumens mounted on cardboard. These images are of the Busch Brewing Company in Washington Missouri. See scans for condition. One of the photos has a framed print of the brewing company on the wall. Poor clarity on some of the subjects. The following is information from the website on the history of this particular brewery. Everyone is familiar with the world-famous Anheuser-Busch brewery in St. Louis, but few people know there was another, smaller Busch brewery fifty miles west in Washington, Missouri. The John B. Busch Brewing Co. was the second of three breweries to carry the Busch name in Missouri. The first was Busch’s Brewery, established in 1848, at 134 South Third and Plum Streets in St. Louis. It’s no coincidence the three breweries shared the Busch name. They were founded by brothers: Adolphus, John B., and George. John B. was the second oldest son whereas Adolphus Busch, co-founder of Anheuser-Busch, was the next to last of the children. . John B. Busch was born in 1832 and came to the United States when he was 17. He settled in St. Louis to learn the brewery business from his brother, George, then a brewer at what was probably the first Busch Brewery on Plum Street. John B. worked two years with George, and established his "Washington Brewery" in 1854 or 1855 (historical records differ). While brother Adolphus in St. Louis dreamed of expansion, the John B. Busch family in Washington became affluent, but they weren’t concerned with going statewide or nationwide. They just took care of Franklin County. The brewery’s total output never exceeded 10,000 barrels a year. John B. was a founder of the Bank of Washington and was closely involved in the church, Turnverein (German gymnastic and dramatic society) and the waterworks. He was innovative and a prime mover from that standpoint. John B. Busch Sr. died at age 62 in 1894 after a long illness. His son, John B. Busch Jr., moved back to Washington in 1894 and became company president. He was president until his death in 1937, when Ulrich W. Busch Sr. took over. At some point in time, Walter A. Busch, John B. Sr.’s youngest son, was president. When he died in 1947, his obituary identified him as the local distributor of Anheuser-Busch products. Busch sold beer under a number of different brand names: Washington Lager Beer and Busch Beer in the early years, and later, Culmbacher and Busch’s Pilsner. A May 1877 announcement in Die Washingtoner Post noted that the brewery was selling its usual bock beer. The Busch Beer name was used many years before Anheuser-Busch introduced Busch Lager near beer during Prohibition, and later, Busch Bavarian. Ironically, the John B. Busch Brewing Company closed in 1954, the same year Anheuser-Busch introduced its popular-priced Busch Bavarian beer.

9 by 7 inch albumen photograph mounted on card board. Nice condition. 1880's

This albumen is loosely mounted on a board. Photo is wrinkled in a large area as if someone tried to glue it back to the board. Somewhat light but still a great photo. One can see the medals that the biker is proudly wearing. Bike races were quite popular in American in the 1880's. This photo measures 8 by 10. I found it in C C Giers and Otto Giers family papers and photographs but this would be by Otto.

Nine and a half by seven and a half inch mounted albumen. With the board, it measures about 12 by 14. Wiles Photographic Mark. I believe this to be the business belonging to Charles Howell.

Wiles, of course, was a Nashville area photographer. Some spots and scratces.

It is decorated for some event. Note the buildings in the left background including the old cars. See the Elk statue at the right. Two men can be seen lounging on the porch. Great glimpse of historic Nashville.
