I am simply the owner of a couple of these photographic prints and not an art historian.<br /><br />I suggest that you find a local art dealer or museum who may be able to shed more light on the age of the pieces you have.

I am curious about the fact that they are unframed and perhaps printed before the Ohio picture frame company distributed them, which would make them originating prior to 1900.

I just want to know whether this shop was owned by MR Parkinson. The photo was a Chinese person called Dean Lung with a dog. Dean Lung contributed 12000 dollars to the University of Collumbia, which led to the establishment of the Dean Lung Professorship in 1901. This photo is now on the wall of the Columbia University.
