Subject: mystery photo
Hello Listers.
May I request your assistance with identifying a mystery photograph?
The attached image is of two boys dressed in uniform. They grew up in the
Merton, WI, area and the studio named on the photo is "Mann, Waukesha." The
only identifiable features on the uniforms they wear is the laurel leaf
symbol on the cap and the "MGVB" lettering on the collar. What does "MGVB"
stand for? It is possible that the "V" is actually an "F" and if that's the
case, does "FB" stand for "Fire Brigade?"
Thanks,
