This charming family portrait was taken in 1916.

They were the Schaeffer family cats.

I wonder which one is Skin...
...and why was it named Skin!??

An Arm and A Cat - Twice

It would be amusing to collect photos of pets that include a persons arm :-)

I think we have all felt like this at one time. You have been out and about jumping around like a wild kitty, being assertive and out going, when all of the sudden sitting behind a wicker chair seems a really good idea .

Fannie's Herman and Vermin

Fannie took this picture. Such a look!! Go to Wikipedia to read more about Fannie. She was a fascinating woman!! This was the courtyard where Herman and Vermin reigned supreme. Frances "Fannie" Benjamin Johnston (15 January 1864 – 16 May 1952) was one of the earliest American female photographers and photojournalists . "An independent and strong-willed young woman, she wrote articles for periodicals before finding her creative outlet through photography after she was given her first camera by George Eastman , a close friend of the family, and inventor of the new, lighter, Eastman Kodak cameras. She received training in photography and dark-room techniques from Thomas Smillie , director of photography at the Smithsonian ."
