According to genealogy website Mocavo, A “Louis Baunach was born on September 10, 1879 and died on February, 1969 at the age of 90…. Louis’s last known place of residence was Richmond Hill, Queens County, New York.” I am not certain that this is the same Louis Baunach as in this image, which Vincenzo and I bought in a second-hand story in Fishs Eddy, NY almost two decades ago. It is also unclear as to whether or not these images were taken in Queens. Feel free to help solve this mystery. Lydia Maria Pabon – who used my images here on her Pinterest without crediting me claims “the address was 834 Fresh Pond Rd. which has been re-numbered to 67-06 and is now home to Jiffy Cleaners.”
