The 5 cards above are a set. They are numbered 1 thru 5 on the front. The stamp boxes on the back are AZO with 4 triangles in the corners pointing up which means these images were taken between 1901 and 1918. They all say 1913 flood Cincinnati, O. in pencil on the back. Does anybody recognize this bridge? It is not a bridge that would have spanned a river.
This card which is obviously different from the first 5 has a back that is identical to the others and says the same thing in the same handwriting as the others. This makes me very suspicious (especially after you look at the next card) that these cards may not be identified correctly. Anybody recognize it?
This card is, once again, different from the others but it is at least identified as a Big Four Bridge on March 25, 1913. The back is identical to all the others. Look familiar to anyone?
This rather impressive church card was made by Kaeser & Blair, Inc., Cincinnati. So far I have been unable to identify it. Help!
Another 1913 flood card!! I am being inundated with these (That's a joke son). This one was mailed May 16, 1913 from Norwood. Again the writer makes no mention of the image. It was mailed to Harrison, Ohio. It looks like the remains of another bridge and railroad ties being laid out to replace the existing ones. It looks like this image is #10 of a set.
You guessed it, another flood card. This one shows one of the 2 floods that occurred in 1907. The card was mailed 3-30-07. The writer calls this "The dear old hangout, the ball park is just behind that ugly fence." Unfortunately no further information was forthcoming. This one I have no hope of identifying.
This unknown school was published by Gilberts-Good Photos-Cincinnati, O. located at 404 Commercial Tribune Building.
I can find no information on Kipp. Since the truck is parked in front of a grocery store I would presume this is a delivery truck for this store. There is nothing to prove that the Springfield Pike on the truck's side is the one in Cincinnati. The card has not been mailed.
The only thing printed on the back of this double card are the words "Cincinnati, Ohio." I have never heard of a school that was called West, but apparently that is the name. The group photograph was obviously taken in 1925. Since this is such a rare card I would very much like to know more about it, anyone recognize it?
All this card says on the back is Evangelical Press Cincinnati, Ohio. The stamp box places this in the 1918-1930 era.
This card was mailed in 1912 from Elmwood Place and the message is in German. From this I presume the church is a German denomination somewhere in the Elmwood Place area but probably not in Elmwood Place proper, since I can not uncover any churches in Elmwood that look like this one.
Guess what? here is another Elmwood Place church (at least that is what the 1910 cancellation says.
I am always a sucker for a card that says Cincinnati so I am sure there will be more later.
