Helgeson, was probably the photographer. He had a studio in Lake Mills 1884-1885 according to the records. My dad still has his camera (large format, of course), which I plan on getting and restoring. Likely the same camera that took these photos I imagine, who knows? Would be pretty cool if it was! -LarryLarryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00889458689299981277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320880361203053560.post-20782414306300744512009-11-10T13:45:47.589-06:002009-11-10T13:45:47.589-06:00The boy has such sad and old-looking eyes for some...The boy has such sad and old-looking eyes for someone so young.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18296050573667055406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320880361203053560.post-87455494012440187782009-10-30T11:55:41.222-05:002009-10-30T11:55:41.222-05:00Also, the girl's dress is suggestive of the 18...Also, the girl's dress is suggestive of the 1880s - higher collar, lace trim in a V shape on the bodice - these were popular women's clothing styles, I believe around that time.Norkiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14017387181655123770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320880361203053560.post-87422465208664009902009-10-30T11:52:39.497-05:002009-10-30T11:52:39.497-05:00Reminds me of Little Lord Fauntleroy, written in 1...Reminds me of Little Lord Fauntleroy, written in 1885 and inspiring the boys fashion craze in America.Norkiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14017387181655123770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320880361203053560.post-46837882475756086502009-10-23T18:06:29.567-05:002009-10-23T18:06:29.567-05:00Great Idea Far Side - you never know you may even ...Great Idea Far Side - you never know you may even run into somebody who knows something about a picture sometime -- Wouldn't that be something!Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18138747690602990437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320880361203053560.post-65782989339882492152009-10-23T15:22:16.906-05:002009-10-23T15:22:16.906-05:00Rae, I noticed you are up early!

Too bad these old photos were not able to be passed on to future generations. <br />This new blog is going to be an adventure of learning. I really like it. <br />BTW Couldn't help noticing your posting time.
