Mystery Photo: Little Rufus Milne in 1894
This cabinet card photo is marked “Rec’d May 5, 1894.” It’s not entirely clear what received might specifically refer to here, but with some confidence we can say this photo is at least 130 years old and someone received it precisely 130 years ago.
The photographer, according to information on the Minnesota Historical Society’s Directory of Minnesota Photographers, is likely Albert A. Stensby, who is listed as working out of the Reppe & Company studio at 2005 W. Superior St. in that era. (There is also an August Stensby who was a photographer in Duluth at the same time.)
A note on the back indicates the subject of the photo is Rufus Harold Milne.
