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. It is my estimate that the photo was taken in 1895, based on the writing on the photo, and the fact that it matches descriptions of pictures taken during that year. The picture is 4-1/4" x 6-1/2", and mounted on heavy cardboard, as was typical during that time period. It is in very good condition and is an original (not a copy). Wollensak Studios, 500 National Ave., Milwaukee, WI. Edwin appears to be about six months old, and is wearing a gorgeous christening dress. He is a bald baby, and so very cute. He is seated, posed, on what looks to be a bear rug - which is over a cane type chair. If you have Roth ancestors in your family from this time frame in Milwaukee, WI, please Email me at margerice@prodigy.net - and I will get back to you shortly.
