Orphan Photo # 16 Iowa

Today's posting is on a vintage CVD Card also known as a calling card. It is of a darling little child. Probably a girl. Wearing a ruffled dress and shoes with what looks like a decoration on them. Her hair is fairly short with small curls. Posed perfectly on a beautiful chair.

Sadly there is no name on this picture. Was Photographed by Ensiminger Brothers of Independence, Iowa.

There is some wear on the front and loss of front layer of coloring on upper right corner.

What we know is probably a little girl around 3 or 4 years old, living in or near Independence, Iowa and probably family had some money to buy a nice dress for her to wear for her photo.

Orphan Photo #10 Iowa Mr Parker

What a handsome dapper man is Mr. Parker.

With his top hat , fancy suit and a cigar in his hand.

This was taken by H Hawkes of West Union, Iowa.

I found this in Minnesota in an old album. The only identification I have was the name Parker written in the Album.
