Default Okay you hairy bozos, let's try this again
Posted By: David

So as to not confuse anyone, I AM looking for info on photos made before 1935. While there were newservice photos before 1935, sending them via wire ('wire photo') wasn't widespread before 1935. Instead of sending the image overnight via wire, the real photos were most commonly sent by train to the local newspapers-- which will explain the lack of timely photos in old newspapers.
