Portrait of Robert Hamilton Doe and Donald Bartlett Doe

Children of State Normal School Graduates

This is a picture of the sons of Orestes T. and Mabel Piper Doe. Mabel Piper Doe was from the twelfth graduating class at what is now known as Worcester State College. The picture is of her two sons at the age of 20 months. From this picture one can see how young boys were dressed at an early age. This picture was found in the album called “Graduates Children.” The album was “Manufact By E Posen & Co. Offenbach O/M. Germany.” It is difficult to tell exactly when this picture was taken, but from 2 pages down in the album a photograph dates to 1904. So, it was taken in the early 1900’s.
