Local Note:
Source print Navaho 4689 (negative 2442) is on an N. Brown & Son carte. The other two photographs in that series (negatives 2413-A & -B) appear to have also been taken by Brown & Son. Comparison of props, style and general appearance suggests that negatives 55,766-55,771 were also taken by Brown. N. Brown & Son was a prominent studio opened in Santa Fe between 1866 and 1868 and last recorded in 1872.--pjf 1/78
