EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, captured between 1900 and 1910, showcases the impressive facade of the Detroit Photographic Company located at 218 Fifth Avenue in New York City. The image, which measures 8 x 10 inches and was captured on a dry plate glass negative, offers a glimpse into the past of this historic business establishment. The Detroit Photographic Company, which also went by the name Detroit Publishing Company, was a significant player in the American publishing industry during the early 20th century. The company was known for its high-quality reproductions of photographs, particularly those of scenic views and architectural landmarks from around the United States and other countries. The photograph captures the intricate details of the company's Fifth Avenue building, which was a popular destination for tourists and locals alike. The building's grandeur is evident in the ornate stonework, large windows, and the prominent Detroit Photographic Company signage. The image also offers a glimpse into the bustling activity of Manhattan Island during this era, with the busy streets and horse-drawn carriages visible in the background. Edwin H. Husher, a skilled photographer, likely captured this photograph using traditional photographic techniques of the time. The image is now part of the extensive collection of the Library of Congress, serving as an important historical record of a bygone era and a testament to the rich heritage of American industry and architecture.
