DRESSED FOR A DRIVE IN MONAWA, WISCONSIN

BONNIE AND CLYDEAlthough this terrific photograph is from the post cabinet card era, I want to share it with Cabinet Card Gallery visitors. The five individuals in this photograph appear to be dressed for an auto tour. One can easily imagine them sitting in an open motoring car driving down an open country road. The groups wardrobe and good looks bring to mind images of Bonnie and Clyde. Three of the subjects of this photograph are identified on the reverse as Ed Fetzer, Ed Heideman, and Martha Krause. This photograph was taken at the Quimby Studio in Manawa, Wisconsin. The Manawa Wisconsin Gazeteer and Business Directory (1903) lists A. C. Quimby as operating as a photographer in the town of Manawa.
