This vintage postcard features two church buildings located in Centerport, Long Island, New York. The message on the card is ironic. On a church postcard, the writer wrote that he/she was “Having a H. of a time”. Preliminary research strongly suggests that this card pictures the Centerport Methodist Church. The card was postmarked on July 5th in 1909. The postcard was manufactured in Germany and published by W. H. Barto (Northport, NY). (SOLD)
Two adorable kids pose for photographer Rud Bachmann whose studio was located on Broadway in New York City. The older child is holding a walking stick. It is very likely that the children are siblings. The photographer’s full name is Rudolph Bachmann. He was born in 1850 in Switzerland. He came to the United States in about 1880 and by 1884 was operating a photography business at 1437 Broadway in New York City.

This cabinet card features a portrait of a pretty and curly haired young woman. She is wearing a light colored dress with lace and a pin (jewelry) that appears to secure the lace. I would estimate that she is in her teenage years. She is well poised and relaxed in front of the camera. Perhaps she is an actress. Her face is very expressive. She has beautiful and engaging eyes.

Look who’s riding into town! Its the Roberts brothers. Someone better go get the sheriff. This real photo postcard is quite interesting. The boys look comfortable on their horses. The kids are on large horses, not small ponies reserved for inexperienced child riders.They appear to know what they are doing. One of the boys has a whip. No cowboy hats for these guys. One is wearing a wide brim bowler while the other is sporting a cap. Note the dirt streets. The town may actually be a frontier town in the “old west”. Also take notice of the boy standing on the sidewalk. He seems truly interested in the horseback riders, or perhaps, the photographer. The young bystander is wearing knickers. The AZO stamp box on this postcard reveals that it was likely published sometime between 1904 and 1918. The cameraman was a studio photographer who was willing to take difficult photographs in the outdoors. (SOLD)
