    A recent new acquisition of mine. Can anyone do some internet sleuthing magic and help me identify where this store was located? I purchased it out of a Southern Ohio estate so perhaps it didn't go too far from home. Lots of American Flags in the window.

    Perhaps photograph was taken during World War I.

    I've been doing OK. Doctors ordered more testing that I need to get scheduled. Trying to enjoy every moment I can on the days I am feeling well. I have been wanting to post some more of my finds here.

    Thanks for trying. I've seen some wet plate images from even earlier that were crystal clear from a hundred feet further out. This one was a different process and cheaper lens.
