This is a wallet photo from the antique shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.

Charles Roth 1930
I am not sure what is written on the front of the photo.
Thanks for stopping by.

Update from Iggy:

The 1930 US census shows a Charles Roth as a roomer in Farimont, MN, born c. 1913 in Iowa. It is hard to be sure since this fellow got around - and there are a couple other fellows with the same name, but I think this is Charles Phillip Roth 
Birth 1 Jan 1913 in Estherville, Emmet, Iowa 
Death 26 Feb 1999 in Brownsville, Cameron, Texas
He worked in a road construction outfit based in Brainerd, MN for 20+ years.

  1. I think the 1930 might be a birth year - but haven't found anything conclusive.

  2. On the other hand...if that 1930 represents the date of the photo, this may be one of three Charles Roths living in Minnesota--two in the St. Paul/Minneapolis area, and one in Perham...although I don't find any curly-headed matches among these St. Paul seniors from the 1929 yearbook.

  3. I think the handwriting on photo 1915 Herbert Kanning is the same. If so, there is a good chance this Charles attended the same high school (Herbert Kanning, 1930, Graduated from Fairmont High, Fairmont, MN).
