This vintage real photo postcard features an adorable little girl sitting on a high brick wall. Her dog has its front paws on the wall and its back feet on top of a dog house. The dog has a long metal chain. I believe the dog is some sort of Retriever. The caption below the image says “Playmates”. Indeed, they were. This postcard was published by W & K of London, England. It is part of a series (No.253). The card has a British stamp and a postmark from 1920. SOLD
This cabinet card photograph features an adorable little boy posing next to a large dog. The boy is fashionably dressed. The dog appears to be some type of Retriever. Note the painted backdrop behind the boy and his dog. This photo was taken by G. M. Greene. His studio was located in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. George Miles Greene married Jennie Davidson in 1861. The couple were divorced in 1880. “The Photographic Times” printed an obituary for Greene in 1895. He passed away at age 65. It is noted that he had a “large practice” in Johnstown before the great flood of 1889. His studio was swept away and “carried down the raging Conemaugh River”. He built a new studio after the flood. In 1894 he sold the business to the Boston Art Company. Greene was forced to sell the business due to ill health. (SOLD)
Despite the title of this entry, this photograph is far from a hostage situation. Instead, two dandies pose with their young children and a larger Retriever dog. Both children are holding rifles, presumably toy rifles. The identity of the photographer, the identity of the subjects, and the location of the studio, are unknown. SOLD
