August K. Smoot taken in the Mueller Photo Studio at Broadway & Bank between 1885-1895 |
A GREAT collection of photos!
The one above is probably from the mid
to late 1880s, identified by the location of the
photo studio. The image below (no studio logo)
is likely about 1910 range. Notice the background
street scene. You can even see the wood grain of
the door panel!
