Bawden Studios, St. Paul. Long shot, but (since my mother, at 15, was using an alias) his name was Raymond C. Baxter. He used his real name, and probably listed his address in Harlingen. A-n-y-t-h-i-n-g else you could find in those old receipts from May of '47. Like any address they might have wanted the photo sent to? Or any other info that could be gleaned? They're both long gone, and they didn't raise me, but any info you might be able to find would be something I could share with my grown sons and granddaughters.

I described this beautiful gal to her over the phone..hair parted down the middle, natural curly dark brown hair..a single strand of pearls and a blouse that might be white, ivory or pale pink that has lots of pleating down the front. I mailed her a copy of the photo if it is her..I will mail her the original.
