When and What: This is a picture from before 1910 of someone using the high tech camera of his age, while being photographed by another person also technologically endowed. Amazingly these box cameras were also auto focusing (fixed for infinity) and "actually worked". The lake appears wild and undeveloped. Notice the ribbed interior of the canoe. Canoes and boats were painstakingly crafted out of "wood". |

Picturing Lake Minnetonka
A Post Card History by James W. Ogland and published by the
Minnesota Historical Society. Graphics of far greater quality and variety
than anything you'll find on the net, unless of course you visit the Minnesota
Historical Society. The book is filled with fascinating historical information
about the Lake Minnetonka area. A great gift for anyone who lives near the
"Great Waters" or once did. It is also a great way to support your
historical society and works of local historical importance. I know this sounds like an advertisement but I'm not affiliated in any way to anyone involved with "Picturing Lake Minnetonka". I love history, and believe it's important. If you like what I have on this site you'll probably want this book. |
