Frederick "Fred" G. Albrecht (Director Band) - St. Paul (Ramsey) MN Minnesota 1930
This offer is for the original group photograph of men including Mr. Albrecht hailing from the Twin Cities of Minnesota in this fraternal organization. The 16" x 20" original photograph appears to be one that has been "colorized" from a b/w photograph.
The faces appear with a pastel look but the details are still good and distinguishable. The first impression we had when we found this over 80-yr old photograph in a Kansas City antique mall is how it reminded us of the Beatles "Sgt Pepper's" album cover with the composite faces of various celebrities both modern and historical in one group setting. Anyone descended from any one of these men will have a worthwhile family treasure to pass down to their children and grandchildren whoever is lucky enough to purchase this item first!
