L. F. Gillette



Photographer:
Gillette & Parker
Traveling Photographers
(Also listed under Parker)


In the years around 1900, there was a large selection of photographers named Gillette and literally dozens of photographers named Parker. From the scant information given on this card, it is impossible to tell which two were partnered as “Traveling Photographers” here. Perhaps more information will surface in time so that this pair can be researched.

L. F. Gillette and Thomas Parker were active in Ohio at the same time (1877-1878) but there were many others who could have connected and traveled together.

Not the one you were looking for? Here's the photographer's INDEX by name. All the Cabinet Card photographers of the 19th century found in LOST GALLERY are listed there.

This is a work always in progress.

Aditional information and new examples are always welcome. Any additional information will help narrow the time that these precious antiques were made.

All submissions should be free of glare and shadows.
Do not crop.
Leave a border around each card. The edges are sometimes an important clue to the age of the card.
