Turn of The Century Pictures

These pictures were provided to me by Frank Russell of Rome, NY. Frank told me they are photographic copies of old postcards. Franks' father, Dr Ed Russell, the current owner of the Burdick property told me a little more about their origin. It seems he borrowed the origional unposted cards from the Yutzlers. The Yutzlers sold the property to the Burdicks in 1928. Dr. Russell told me that in the late teens and early 1920's, befor cameras came into the hands of the general population, photographers were commissioned to make photo postcards.
