We are a little uncertain about the portrait here. We note two brothers from Chicaho having a formal portrait taken in 1919. We are not sure if it is for a First Communion ot Lithern Confirmation. Perhaps readers may know how to diferentiate. The age of the boys suggests it may be a confirmation. The boys wear dark knickers suit with wing collars and white bowties. They have lapel corsages and sleeve bows. They stand between a elaborate floral display with ribbons and a candel. The candel suggests the boys may be German ancestry. The portrait is useful because it was in a folio-type folder. This helps with the HBC effort to develop chronological information on studio frames.
