Andrew J. Kania
Andrew J. Kania. Circa 1930. Private Collection.
Center Street, Southington, was the site of Ideal Forging, his place of work.
The photograph that started it all. The first of my collection and a real photograph postcard, a common format to share with friends and acquaintances at the time. I did some research on Andrew Kania, thanks to a census and his military records. If you wish to know more about him, here is the info I left at Find A Grave.
Photographer: Congress Studio. 17 Congress Ave. New Haven, CT.

This lovely boy is wearing a double breasted knickerbocker suit with his Kipa. The pose is fantastic.

Chester Pratt
Chester Pratt. Private Collection
Chester Pratt had an attitude in this photograph, didn’t he? Was he mad at at the photographer? Did he have a bad day, or was he just showing pride? Who knows, but there’s everything to love about this photograph.
Photographer: Miller. Bushnell. ILL.
Unknown Sitter from Lima, NY
Anonymous from Lima N.Y. Private Collection
This CDV is probably from the early 1880s. Too bad we will never know the name of the sitter because he’s well worth remembering! Notice the diamond pattern of his tie and the triangle stud.
Photographer: E. P. Baker. Lima, NY
