Throwback Thursday: Amelia Thege with Sadie & Emma Makler

Happy #ThrowbackThursday!

This week’s highlight is a 4″x6″ glass plate negative dated 12/1/1910. The negative is a bust portrait profile photograph of three women, Amelia Thege, Sadie Makler, and Emma Makler. All three women are wearing high-necked, long-sleeved dresses with their long, brunette hair in a variety of elaborate styles.

This image is published as part of the Boston Studio Project collection, and is owned by both them and the Thorpe Opera House Foundation. The Boston Studio Collection consists of over 68,000 negatives that record life in and around David City, Nebraska from 1893 to 1979.
