There are MANY photographs on this page so it may load slowly.
Note: There are gaps left for new additions.
This page has had extensive updates since it was first posted five years ago, so it has been brought forward to the current date.
Most often a found photograph is of unknown people by an unknown photographer. Occasionally the names of the people in a photograph are written on it later. But, very seldom do we ever learn the name of the photographer.
In the case of the Cabinet Card and the Carte de Viste (CDV) the photographer's name or studio name is often included as part of the mounting. It is sometimes at the narrow end of the mounting board on the front and sometimes it is presented in an elaborate fashion on the reverse of the card.
This page of the LOST GALLERY will present all of the CDV mounted photographs in the collection where the photographer is known.
The name of the photographer will be repeated in the text so that it can be included in internet searches by Google and Bing and the rest.
As more information about the photographer emerges it will be added here.
Many of the photographs on this page have been enhanced for clarity. To view the original untouched version, click on the picture and you will be taken to the Flickr page where it is stored. The original should be close by.
