[Leica] IMG: Woman with hat interior

[Douglas Barry]

Yes, Jim, you're right. We can see some names crossed out, and others 
written in instead. The various fonts of family knowledge have died, so 
there's no one to ask any more. Fights are thus unlikely :-)

It's a pity that people don't write details on the back when they get 
their images for the first time. Incidentally, one of the photos we have 
has an elegant art nouveau cover that says "De Youngs" who were based on 
Broadway in New York and whose major claim to fame as photographers was 
the famous shot of Harry Longabaugh and Etta Place. Longabaugh was 
better known as the Sundance Kid.

While I have many who I can identify, this woman and the photographer remain an enigma, as unlike many we have, this one has no writing on the back, and no photographer's studio name embossed.
