Carte de visite by Wires of Milford. This freckle-faced lad, his long, curly locks combed, strikes a dapper pose in a tailored suit and matching hat.
Vermont-born photographer Ephraim Lewis Wires (1834-1905) operated a gallery in Milford, Mass. His obituary in the May 17, 1905, issue of The Boston Globe notes: “He came to Milford about 1857 and had resided here ever since. He was a prominent photographer here 40 years ago and was one of the first in this state to apply practical principles of art to photography. Later he became interested in the ‘clinching screw,’ an important patent for shoe manufacture. He remained many years as partner in Estabrook, Wires & Co., and later acquired that business. He retired with a fortune 20 years ago and since was interested in various corporations as an investor.”

Jasper got a new bow tie for Christmas from one of his human cousins. Thought it paired nicely with his fedora. Getting his bow tie to show was a challenge though. The boy is furry.

I always look forward to hearing the Dapper Dans when I'm at the park. At times they sound so good, people actually think they are lip syncing. In fact, there were more than a few folks on a Disney Discussion board recently who swore up and down that they were lip syncing to a track. As I explained to them, this can EASILY be disproved if you spend any time at all watching them and you actually use your powers of observation. The bicycle built for four is always a nice touch. :)
A real photo postcard showing three dapper gentlemen in suits, ties, and straw hats pretending to ride in an airship in a photo studio located in Douglas, Isle of Man.
Notice how the pilot is carefully operating the fake control lever as a cigarette dangles from his mouth. I just hope that the gas bag above him doesn't contain dangerously flammable hydrogen!
