Bloomington (Monroe County, Indiana) World, January 15, 1895, p. 1. THE PROGRESSIVE One Year Old Today; An Era of Progress in Their Art One year ago today Messrs. Wilhite and Niceley came to this city from Crawfordsville and took possession of the Progress photograph gallery located in the new Allen block. They came entirely unknown, but by close application to business and ready demonstration of excellence in their art soon became widely known and justly famous for the artistic work sent out of their gallery. Not content with mere success at starting, they have continued to demonstrate to the public the fitness of the name of their gallery by making rapid progress, keeping in line with the highest type of art in their line and introducing every worthy improvement. They are both members of the Indiana Association of Progressive Photographers, Mr. Wilhite being a charter member and member of the executive committee. Through his efforts the name "Progressive" was given to the organization. This association holds its first regular session at Indianapolis, March 5, 6, and 7, 1895, at which time they will make an elegant photographic display of portraits of Bloomington's ladies, pretty children and view of the city and university. Messrs. Wilhite and Niceley have had a successful year and their ever-increasing host of friends and patrons will find them at their old stand during the coming year.
