Hi, everyone! My name is Emily and I collect antiques. This blog will not only show you all my collection, but will also be used to help me discover what belonged to who. In the case of the photographs I've acquired, I am most interested in finding out more about the people captured on the paper. If you know anything about any of the finds I have on my blog, please let me know! Thank you! :)

More Pictures! :)
Got both of these for $2 at that store in Fenelon Falls! Neither have anything written on the back, but the one of the little boy (holding the cat) looks to be from the 1920s, the one of the baby from 1890s or maybe early 1900s. :)

Awwwwwh, it's a reading baby!!
Look at how cute this baby is! They've got a book! And, like my previous post, I know absolutely nothing else about this except the fact that it's so incredible precious.
Little Joe
Like many of my other acquired photographs, I'm uncertain as to when this was taken as well as who took it and exactly how old the child in the image is. All I know is that his name is Joe. It had his name scrawled on the back of the card the photograph is attached to.
My mom actually picked this one out of a pile of pictures at the antique store the took me too (in Fenelon Falls). She loved it because of the little hair part he has in the middle of this head. Isn't it adorable? His expression is so cute, too! :)

Unknown, unknown, unknown!
It makes me so sad that I know absolutely nothing about this picture. Oh well, I thought you'd all like to see it regardless, because it's a baby and babies are so cute. Enjoy!
Now, for another photograph!
Again, I'm not sure when it was taken, though I think it was taken between 1876 - 1912. Her name is Effie Ripley and she's "Uncle Simon's daughter" (as it says on the back of the photo). It was taken at the Beverage Cottage Gallery run by a man named Maurice Beverage, also the photographer. If you have any photographs taken by Beverage, the website I found this information on requests you send any information to his email address (click here).
