This wonderful little 2×3″ photo is from the early 1920s and was in pretty bad condition.  I took the restoration to this point and decided any more fussing would be overdoing it.  What a unique image of this fella and his chow.  I love the vest and tie he is wearing and the surprise was when I enlarged it and cleaned up the edges….what I thought was a pipe in his mouth turned out to be a mystery object.    It looks to me to be either a bandage but he appears to be holding it in the corner of his mouth.   Any guesses????

Regardless, I am always so happy to find photos of men with chows. They don’t come along very often and this is a real treasure!!!!

I do my best to be as accurate as possible in my research, however many times written history finds a way to "morph" over time. I love your comments and appreciate all feedback, additions and corrections my readers have to offer to help make this a well rounded and accurate archive.
