1927rif. 54692Lamesa Texas: Photographed by Liberty Studio Lamesa Texas 1927. 1927. TEXAS. 5" x 7" black & white photograph in an 8" x 10" matted card board frame. Regional lawmen from across the West Texas plains gathered at the Dawson County Courthouse in Lamesa Texas for a two-day regional convention to coordinate cross-county criminal tracking and discuss regional law enforcement strategy. This photograph taken by Liberty Studio in Lamesa stamped on rear of board frame captures 26 individuals . mostly sheriffs and deputies . arranged casually on the steps of the courthouse. Historical notes describe the group as wearing cowboy hats looking "steely-eyed" and exhibiting the weathered sunburned appearance typical of 1920s West Texas lawmen. One of the confirmed lawmen in attendance annotated on surviving prints of the photograph was F.M. "Frosty" Ellington a local cowboy who served as the Sheriff of neighboring Terry County from 1925 to 1929. There is a small inked "x" on the photograph between two men on the left side of the first row. Perhaps one of the two men in the first row or the man directly above them on the second row is Mr. Ellington. During this era these regional "Sheriffs' Association" meetings were highly significant events for small towns like Lamesa. Because criminal operations and early bootlegging rings frequently crossed vast county lines meetings like the one on August 12th/13th were vital for rural sheriffs to share information identify suspects and unify law enforcement practices. A bright photograph with strong contrasts and in near fine condition. Photographed by Liberty Studio, Lamesa, Texas, 1927. unknown

1896rif. 20057Herisau Switzerland: Edwin Jucker 1896. Matted. A kooky Gay Nineties band of cross-dressers a la Suisse! Four of the eight member band are in comical drag in this large sepia-toned photograph taken place during Carnival when outrageous costumes partying and carousing are as much a tradition in the Teutonic world as they are in the Latin countries. The photo itself as visible in the window surrounded by matting is 17 by 22 cm. The photo is taped to the back of the matting and when we look behind the photo is on a thick card measuring about 18 by 23.5 cm. We haven't examined the photo removed from the matting but we would assume that there is a narrow margin and virtually all of the photo is visible. The matting included the dimensions are 27.5 by 35 cm. The band seems to be a more or less typical Tyrolean ensemble with a violin a double bass a trumpet a flute a clarinet we assume -- part of the instrument is hidden so we aren't 100 percent certain a bass drum and a trombone. The center figure in the photo is a man dressed like Uncle Sam with a top hat a long goatee etc. We think this was probably intentional -- the consciousness of America and American culture has become a thing in a Europe with the explosive growth of the American economy and the lure of emigration beckoning to so many at the time. Three of the cross-dressers are zaftig and they are dressed in fittingly matronly attire while the fourth mostly hidden behind his drum seems as if he might be a little more svelte and his attire looks more like that of a suffragette say. The men dressed as men are also in comical costume as well at least three of them. The thinner man holding a trumpet is in clothes that might be Tyrolean or might be from an earlier decade -- we can't tell from the photo that blurs his suit into just a dark undifferentiated shape. We also think it is possible but unlikely that one or more of the band members dressed as men might be a cross-dressing woman but we have no confidence that this is the case and it is probably unknowable. A close look at the faces of the band members suggests to us also that a few of them are closely related and probably siblings. Again probably unknowable for all intents and purposes. The backdrop of the photo is a paneled wall with four travel posters of Swiss resorts -- Rigi Lake Maggiore Ragaz-Wartenstein. We would think this was a photo studio backdrop. Again just a guess. Written on the photo is "Wartsaal III - Classe". This suggests that the band was participating in a contest. Herisau is in the Appenzell Canton of Switzerland or the Northeast of the country close to St. Gallen. The photo is foxed not terribly. The matting is also foxed and stained otherwise with three chips two of which are at corners. Although the matting might seem a candidate for replacement though we wouldn't since it is clearly original to the photo with its black impressed caption above and issued with the photo itself as a souvenir of the band and the event.

2013New English Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (28 x 20 cm). In English. 356 p. B/w and color ills. "Photography in the Ottoman Empire 1839-1923 provides an account of the history of photography in the Ottoman Empire between the years 1839-1923, an important though neglected field in the history of an early photography. The sultans of the Ottoman Empire traditionally shaped the arts of their day, and their enthusiastic reaction to the discovery of photography was to be crucial in the development of photography in the Empire. This third edition of the book published by YEM Publications has been updated and enlarged to incorporate new information gathered over the years and many new photographs that have been added to my archive. I have made sure that the revised text comprises the latest information available on the subject. Many nation states were created in the former Ottoman territories in Europe, Asia and Africa. I have not included the individual photographic histories of these countries but endeavoured to focus primarily on photography within the present boundaries of the Republic of Turkey. A list of photographers who worked in the Ottoman Empire has been provided to assist all those who are interested in the history of photography in Turkey and the Middle East. The names of photographers that I have come across in documents written in Ottoman Turkish script have been given as spelt. The first two editions treated the story of photography in the Ottoman Empire from the announcement of its discovery in 1839 up to 1919, but this new edition has been extended up to the year 1923 when the Turkish Republic was founded. Researching the history of photography is an unending task requiring a lifetime's dedication."
