I purchased this for $3.00 at Sturgis Antiques in October 2015.
On the front it says, “Bowerman, Wm H” in a place where the photographer’s name would be. On the back it says, “Wm H Bowerman, Artist, 605 E. Baltimore Street, Balto, MD.”
This is tricky: Is it a photograph made by Bowerman the photographer, or a photograph of Bowerman the photographer? Could it be both?
There was a photographer named William H. Bowerman in Baltimore. He lived in the Waverly neighborhood in 1880 and had a shop at 605 E. Baltimore Street in 1889-1891.
Would love to buy it from you! He’s an ancestor. I think it is of him. My cell is 410-627-3600
I sent you a text at that number a couple of weeks ago. Did you get it?
