It appears that the photographic career of F E Baynes was rather short. The marriage application of 1899 lists him as a photographer and the 1900 US census also lists him as photographer but by 1906 he has moved to Snohomish, WA, and began life as a bookkeeper.

Any cabinet cards found imprinted F E Baynes must have been finished around 1900, possibly as late as 1907 or as early as 1893.

New examples and additional information 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.

Some examples on this page have been enhanced or restored for clarity and presentation here.
