Cabinet photo. J. Wilber Tudor circa 1900. Private Collection.
A cabinet photo of a turn of the Century young man in outdoors get-ups; tilted cap, turtle neck, slim fitting knickerbockers with calf length socks.
John Wilber Tudor was born in 1880 and lived in Champaign, Illinois. I think this is he circa 1900. He is described on army records as 5’6” with brown hair and blue eyes. Mr. Tudor went on to become a pharmacist and lived a long life to 1968.
To note, he passed away just a little over 2 weeks after his lifelong wife of 62 years. What a love story these two must have had!

He looks as if he could be a farmer or a jockey, an interesting picture and even better to have some information about him. Good to see you back

I’m incredibly much slower, but still around. 😂
Knickerbockers like this need to make a come back.
