Marian Bixler of Spencer, Indiana

Marian Bixler of Spencer, Indiana was 23 years old when this photograph was taken. The Bretzman customer card identifies her and the census records show her living in Spencer, Indiana, with her parents, Tyson and Julia Bixler. Her father was a merchant at a clothing store and Marian was a bookkeeper at the clothing store. Her fur trimmed outfit is very fashionable and perhaps the picture was taken for the store.This image is a preservation copy made from an unstable original nitrate negative.
