<p>[QUOTE="Bakersgma, post: 50707, member: 59"]Here are 2 I haven't shown before. The first is my 2X great-grandmother in the front passenger seat with 4 people I can't positively identify - probably her brother "driving." Taken in 1909 on her extended visit to Seattle for the Alaska-Yukon Exposition (her brother lived here then) at Charleston Foto. It was printed (glossy, not matte) on the front of a postcard and mailed back to my great grand parents in Brooklyn.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]12769[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>This second one is on a postcard mailed from McKenna, North Dakota in late 1909 to my great-grandparents by a business acquaintance who was a travelling hardware products representative. Charming picture of a Native American mother and child, but the building behind them looks more southwest than northern plains, doesn't it? Edit - LOL! I just flipped it over again and it says "Front Porch of Indian Mansion, Taos, N.M."</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]12770[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
