Astonishing - Out of lurk after many years to note the amazing link in your
LUG gallery from this 19th century portrait to 21st century 'Jim & Charlie'
A lovely slice of history - thanks for sharing

Subject: [OM] IMG: 1874 Studio Portrait
Today I received a scan of an early studio portrait by a small town
photographer. This image was made by Frank Saunders, of Aberdeen,
Mississippi, around 1874, and shows my grandmother at around age 2. She
died in 1905, 25 years before I was born.
I did some cleanup work in PSE 6.0, primarily spot and stain removal, but
did not want to alter the character of his work.
