1908-1910 Photo Album

Below is a photo album from 1908-10 that is western style string-bound1. The album contains photos from Peking. The style of binding indicates that the book itself is from the United States. It is likely that the Fenns either acquired the book before moving to Peking and then created the photo album or that the album was created after the Fenn family moved to the United States in 1910.

This album contains photos of Peking and the area that the Fenn’s lived in, Henry’s siblings, and images of children in “Miss McCoys Kindergarten Class”. These are the only photos in the Fenn collection that depict this period of time.
