Perfect Duluth Day

Mystery Photo: Westberg

The identity of the woman in this photo is likely lost to history, but the photographer’s last name is right there in print — Westberg. The Minnesota Historical Society’s Directory of Minnesota Photographers lists two Westbergs who operated in Duluth more than 100 years ago.

L. E. Westberg had studios in Duluth at 104 First Ave. W. (circa 1899), 24 N. 21st Ave. W. (circa 1903), 2330 W. Third St. (circa 1907 to 1918 and 1921 to 1934) and 2973 Exeter St. (circa 1920).

Peter Westberg’s studio was at 2101 W. Superior St. circa 1907.
