Oscar C. Kuehn (1877-1949) was an enthusiastic amateur photographer, and an “ardent camera devotee,” who exhibited his characteristically corny posed shots of cute kids and dogs and a gnarled old-timer strumming a guitar.
This may have been a family snapshot as it has a more authentic look than his more standard posed pictures.
He served as president of the St. Louis Camera Club in the 1920s.
