Description

Photo album titled "St. Thomas." Title is hand printed on a round paper label affixed to spine. Album has a heavy textured dark brown covering and is held together with two metal brads. Album has 70 olive green pages; one page is blank. Album contains 69 mounted black-and-white photographs. Photographs are of a variety of furnishings manufactured by Irving and Casson - A. H. Davenport Co. for a church named St. Thomas in 1919. The firm had multiple church clients with the name St. Thomas. While it is not clear which church by that name is represented in the album, it is likely that it is St. Thomas Church in New York, NY based on the dates. Digital images of a selection of photographs from the album are attached to this record.
