History reception on Wednesday  
MARQUETTE — Marquette Regional History Center  
presents the Special Exhibit: Exposing Photography:  
Anything but a Small Business now through Jan. 13.  
Follow the development of commercial photography in  
Michigan’s central Upper Peninsula. Starting in the mid  
1800s artists set up photography studios around the U.P.  
They made a living off portrait photography.  
BF Childs established Childs Art Gallery in Ishpeming  
which ran over 70 years. Edgar and Merta Lemon started  
a studio in Marquette in 1909 which still operates today.  
Early photographers travelled throughout the Lake Supe-  
rior region to document mines, local scenery, and Native  
Americans.  
Many of these images were sold as souvenirs in the  
form of stereographs. Some were sold in urban markets  
around the country or printed as engravings in Harper’s  
Weekly. These businessmen and women were innova-  
tors and artists in composition, hand coloring prints and  
enlargements.  
Several won international awards.  
Notable amateur photographers will also be examined  
including John M Longyear and night time wildlife pho-  
tographer George Shiras III as well as photographers from  
the Huron Mountain Club: Harold DuCharme, Tappan  
Gregory, and William Harris.  
Miss Rodeo Michigan 2023 Khalilah Smith
