Hi everybody, I'd like to finish this photo but I cannot make out the photography studio's name at the bottom right.  Can any of you see it clearly?  Thanks........ :hug:

Mary,,,,The bottom line looks like "JEFFERSON, MINN", and I think the second word on the diagonal line looks like "Studio", but I can't make out the other name. Sorry, David

Mary,,,,The diagonal line has 3 words, I don't know what the first word is, but it looks like it starts with an "M" and is 4 characters long, the second word is "Art", and the third word is "Studio". I did a Google search for Art Studios in Jefferson, Minnesota, but did not get any hits that started with an "M". Sorry, David

The bottom line is definitely Peterson Minn. After googling I came up with a possibility that fits.

That looks like peterson minn to me not jefferson. Sigh, I missed my desktop and and my good monitor.

Mary, I played and played, and I can verify that the bottom words are PETERSON, MINN

The name of the art studio begins with an M and it appears that there's an apostrophe at the end, but that was all I could pull up for sure.  So it's M---'(s?) Art Studio.  What a bear.  Sorry I couldn't help more.

My mistake, I do think it looks like "PETERSON, MINN". Nice catch Tassie. Regards, David

Thanks to all of you for taking the time to find this information.  I would never have though about googling it.  Tassie, you are a genius!  Now I just have to figure out how to paint the letters in........UGH!

Hi everyone, I'm still having trouble seeing the photographers logo clear enough to restore it.  If anyone has any tips or ideas please let me know otherwise I'm just going to leave the darn thing off.

Mary,

I took a close look and believe the lettering was raised letter imprint and the lighter color came from the mud.  Personally, I don't feel it is important to keep it.  If you like, you may paste this on to it.

Thanks so much Shujen but if you really don't think it's important I have 6 other photos to finish along with this one and I'll skip it.
