'TELEGRAPH ROAD', An Antique Hand-Tinted Photograph from New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada is a very unique image of a gravel road, telegraph polls and towering pines, and is untitled and unsigned. Probably taken in British Columbia because the original dustcover has a label from The Stride Studios, New Westminster, BC. The hand-tinted photo is underneath a single pebbled finish matte. This is a stunning original, sealed photograph worthy of any west coast collection. Note: Look close because there appears to be original writing along the bottom of the black & white photo, and was 'painted over' by the artist.
ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER: The Stride Studios was a commercial photographic studio located in New Westminster, B.C. operated by photographer Charles Stride (1890-1972). The studio was located at 657 Columbia Street, New Westminster, BC.
