Picture 7 of 30
I believe the woman shown in this tinted photo, titled "Daddy's Girl," may have been the woman who was illustrated by RA Fox in images 4 and 5 in this album and in the unsigned image 6. Note especially how this woman's hairdo matches the others. The photo itself may or may not have been taken by Tonnesen.
30 images have been posted in Slideshow Album 9. Navigate to Screen 2 of the Slideshow Gallery. There was wide variation in source material and original image quality, as represented in the results.
I purchased photograph (print?) by “Tonnesen Sisters” Copyright 1900 of a cute little girl reading a newspaper wearing a bonnet and glasses at a auction a couple years ago. It is marked “Chicago Inter Ocean June 16, 1901,” and also has a mark “MULTI-PLATINUM PRINTS, A.L. SWIFT & CO., CHICAGO.” It was sandwiched between two plates of glass and the photograph’s face is now stuck to the glass. Is there a way to have it safety removed from the glass? Thank you.
Hi Keith,
I really don’t have any expertise in this area. You might want to contact the R.A. Fox Society, http://www.rafoxsociety.com. They are a group of print collectors and I think I recall a feature in their newsletter about such things. Good luck!
