<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Figtree3, post: 179469, member: 33&quot;]Through some web searches I found that there were at least 6 different photographers with a studio at that address between the 1870s-1920s. I did not find Offenbach listed.</p><p><br /></p><p>This photo, IMO, is from as early as 1905? and as late as the early 1930s. About the only photographer whose name I found at that address during that time frame was Palmisano. There was also a photographer named Ebeling listed in 1906. But information online can be incomplete. If you could do a search in 20th-century city directories of Brooklyn, that might be the way to go to find out more about the photographer. Census records could also be searched.</p><p><br /></p><p>This one is signed by the photographer on the image itself instead of having an imprint on the card mount. That&#039;s an alternate way of doing things, but makes me wonder whether there&#039;s a chance that the photographer was new to that address or did not stay there long?</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s unlikely that the subject of the photo could be identified, but you never know. Stranger things have happened![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
