Well, now I know who sold these photographs in 1902. But who's selling these photographs in 2007 soon to be 2008?

Slideshow Album 5 was contributed by Leslie Nelson, great-niece of Beatrice Tonnesen. All 21 images are posted. Some of them required quite a bit of restoration. These are print images. I will be including any text information from the bottom of the prints.
If you would like to submit an image for inclusion in the Slideshow, you can send it to this link for the Editors. The image can be in any kind of image format and at any pixel density. The larger the file size the better. Clear focus is more important than correct colors. Avoid shadows and reflections. The image will be digitally restored as appropriate, ownership and source metadata will be embedded, and it will be posted in the Slideshow.
In return, upon posting in the Slideshow, you will be sent a digital file of your restored image.
By transmitting an image file, you expressly give the Editors and beatricetonnesenart.com the right to display the image on this site indefinitely as the Editors see fit. No other representation of the image will be used without the owner’s permission.
Added 2 images to Album 4 of the Slideshow.
