<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Figtree3, post: 153921, member: 33&quot;]Another possibility about the dates -- the one on the right, the sort of vignette style one, might possibly be a copy of a different, older photo. It&#039;s hard to tell, though. That vignette style was popular for a time and could include original photos and copies.</p><p><br /></p><p>And I just re-read the information Bakers provided about Daniel Geist. If he was born in 1850 he was not likely to be the man in the photos. The photo on the left is definitely from the 1860s. That stripe around the edge of the card is definitive. I also think the one without the stripe looks more like 1860s than any other time. It could possibly be from the early 1870s. And to me, the man in the photos looks too old to have been in his teens or early 20s when the photos were taken.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
