Photographer is Olin of La Crosse. Otherwise undated and unidentified.
Comments:
This is another one of the ones my mother gave me. I like the way these two seem so nicely matched. I found at least one other image online by this photographer, but no firm conclusion as to which La Crosse this is. I am operating under the assumption that this is La Crosse, Wisconsin, but I also found smaller towns called La Crosse in Virginia, Washington (population 350), and Kansas (“Barbed Wire Capital of the World”).

Strong jawed and also crisp and clean. After some consideration, I think they are an attractive couple.
They grow on you, don’t they?
Matt, I was a self employed owner of a custom black and white lab for many years. My specialty was copying old photos and I made them all by hand, one at a time. Perhaps a million photos over 15 years. I loved each one, and did magnificent work. You might guess that I saw some amazing, historical, and personal photos.
Mike, that sounds fantastic! What a wonderful experience. I’m sure your work reflected the love and care you felt for those images.
🙂
This couple seemed so solid and stable to me. I think she is very pretty.
I agree. I hope I didn’t give the impression that I thought they were unattractive. Unconventionally attractive, perhaps, but still quite lovely.
