Photo taken 1906 earliest
I came across this short article in "The Music Trade Review" Nov 17, 1906.
Cameras
As a photographer, I would love to browse the interior of the Douglass (and Sons?) camera store and also have a look at the equipment in the Branson Studios.
Early Kodaks -- you paid $1 and got a camera with enough film in it for 100 photos. Then you sent it off to Rochester for processing, with another dollar or two, and they sent back your photos and a new camera all ready to go!
Smoke. Eat.
Did you "Eat" first then "Smoke" or vice versa.
The bank has a half million in Capital, not even enough to pay the CEO's bonus today.
I can just hear the photographer
"Don't move kid, I gotta take a picture. If ya move, you'll wreck it."
Use Mustang Liniment
and you'll be all right in a day or two, and so will your horse.
One Application
Of Mexican Mustang Liniment and you'll be up and at 'um! I'll bet. And your Mustang would purr like new again. The wires on the left hide what looks like some interesting masonry over the realtors office. Neat photo.
Carefully compounded
I see that it's Hat Day once again.

Present day view from a little farther up the block, highlighting one of the few buildings from that era still standing (mid-way up the block, on the left).
Avoiding the glare of His Honor
He certainly has the face of a 40 year old. Just think of the stories he could tell already at such a young age.
