Comments from L. Broatch (October 2019): "I have been calculating what year the photo was taken Wallace Mutton was born 1880 (according to our digital archives), he is in the 3rd row from back and I’d guess about 8-10 years old. Therefore the photo should have been taken 1888-1890. What a treasure!"
