DescriptionA large two-story wooden home stands behind a rod-iron decorative fence at what was 523 West Keleher Avenue, in downtown, Albuquerque, New Mexico. The yard surrounding the home is full of trees. There is a young man standing outside the home in front of an enclosed porch. Ralph Halloran, a New York Life Insurance Co. agent, was one of the first residence of the home. After him was Frances Halloran Marron, later to be owned by Mrs. Eddie Ross Cobb. Eddie was the co-owner of Cobb Studios, a photography studio and business on Gold Avenue in downtown Albuquerque. The Cobb family is responsible for this glass plate negative. One of Eddie's sons, Wilfred Cobb, may be the one standing on the porch. Emulsion deterioration is occurring on the glass plate creating color distortion and emulsion loss.
