Unidentified photography studio

These three photos look like they were taken in the same location. Do you have a photo in your family's collection with this background? If so, let us know if there's any indication where it was taken!

I found this photo with the same background in my own family's Anderson family collection.

The women's fashions in these photos dates them to about 1885-1887.

El Reno, Oklahoma to Greensburg, Indiana

Unidentified photo from the museum's collections

I'm so curious to know how this photo made it's way to Greensburg! The card imprint names the photographer as C. C. Stotz of El Reno, Oklahoma. This photo was likely taken after 1907, when Oklahoma became a state.

According to census records and city directories, Christopher Stotz lived in El Reno with his wife Clara in the early 1900's. Many more Stotz photos are at the Oklahoma Historical Society. You can view them by searching their online database for "Stotz."

Unidentified: Early 20th Century Literary Group

"The Eclipse Studio, Greensburg, Ind."

The open book and piano in this unidentified photo make me think it might be of an arts/literary group. Based on the hairstyles and dress, I believe it was taken c. 1910. Our 1918 photo of the Lone Tree DAR Chapter also has the Eclipse Studio imprint. Do you see any other clues that might tell us something about the people in this photo?
