This antique photo album from the mid to late 1800's appears to consist of photos from residents of Oberlin, Ohio, as gleaned from information

on the photography studio, found inside the book.

Studio: Platt & Hawley, Oberlin, Ohio. Information on Henry Platt is as follows:

"Henry M. Platt b. 1836 d. 1899. Platt was a pioneer photographer in Oberlin. Many of the early photographs taken of Oberlin and its residents bear his name. His first studio was located on the southeast corner of College and Main Sts. in Oberlin. An advertisement for his business contained his motto which read, 'to have patience and perseverance with children.'"

The album is made of leather with brass buckle fasteners.

There are a few photos that show names.
