Featured F.M. Doblmeier published postcards - K Roller artist

You have a gift for surmising, but I’m sure it’s all based on an abundance of knowledge!

 

Well, this was surprising surmising. Now, where's that dang emoji for 'blushing'? Thank you so much Hunting.

 

You were correct SBSVC, but credit for the success thus far must be given to you all, my forum friends!

These were the references given for the biography done in Askart. Maybe there’s info on him in these books?

 

Just went to my local library and found what you described. I'm contacting the Hickory Grove Inn now!

 

You’re making a lot of progress!

 

I thought there should 3 references?

 

Thats the only one I could find so far.

 

If you go to Ebay and search hickory grove inn, there’s a menu and an advertising card. I really cannot see them very well.

For those of you who don't know, "Who's Who" were -- how to say -- publications where one paid to have one's name listed.

Well, entry helpful. Here's two pieces in the holdings of the New-York Historical Society. (Digital copies can be ordered of both.)

And the Hickory Grove Inn in Cooperstown had his work as well. Another stop on your visit itinerary. May still be hanging somewhere.

Thanks, Debora,
One more good thing to try and remember!

 

Here's information on Huckleberry Mountain where he exhibited.

I've been in contact with them, and have scheduled an in person viewing for when we are in NYC in May!

 

Placed a call to Hickory Grove Inn today, and am expecting a call back from the owners!

 

You can also contact the museums and galleries where he exhibited -- those still in business, of course -- to see what they have in their archives. Here's contact information for The Society of the Four Arts in Palm Beach, for instance.

These are the ones I can’t see well, may not even say anything.

 

Hum... Different building, different owner. Likely anything survived changes but one never knows.

I really don’t know. Can’t see it very well. Don’t know when it’s from.
