I enjoy rescuing lovely old pictures like these from antique shops and locating descendants/family members so that I can re-unite the pictures, for only my costs, with people who will treasure them. The photo was taken of Leona at the age of 2 months, 5 days, per the handwriting on the back. It is my estimate that it was taken in about 1905, give or take a few years. The picture is an oval of 4" x 5-1/2", and mounted in a heavy cardboard frame of 6" x 8", as was typical during that time period. It is in very good condition and is an original (not a copy). The photo was taken by the Chelsie Studio of Chamois, MO. Leona is a cute baby, who is wearing a christening gown, and she is propped up on a pillow on a very ornate wicker chair in the photographer's studio. She has just a few wisps of hair on her head, and is darling. If you have Reynolds ancestors in your family from this time frame in Osage Co., MO, or can relate to Leona Virginia Alvina Reynolds, please Email me at [email protected] - and I will get back to you shortly.
