Arthur & Russell Graves (#41)

Flint, Michigan, U. S. A.

Arthur Graves, 1894-?
Russell Graves, 1893-?

Grandsons of Isabella (Johnston) Graves.

Photographer: C.W. Conat, Flint, Michigan

Image restoration incomplete. Interestingly, the chair used in this image appears to be the same chair used in image #16.

This is an albumen photograph, called a cdv or "cartes-de-visite". The card stock, a heavy yellow-orange color was used in the 1880's and later. Cdv's were 2-1/4"x4", but this one is a wee bit wider and has had the height trimmed.

From an original paper photograph, ca. 1900's, which was scanned, emailed to me, and restored in 2005. The thin paper image measures 2-3/8"x3-15/16". The heavy paper backer is trimmed to the image size. full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
