- Description
- A formal photograph of family and friends outside a stately home on Pearl Street. An elderly gentleman sits in a wheelchair near the front of the gathering. Behind him stand the bride and groom. The groom is wearing a military uniform and a helmet. The 1909-1910 Henderson's Directory lists an Albert Guerard at 210 Pearl Street. The directory indicates that he was the proprietor of the Gaiety Theatre, a popular Vaudeville house with a seating capacity of 650. An advertisement for the Gaiety Theatre boasts that the theatre was 'absolutely fireproof', an important asset at that time, given the number of buildings destroyed by fire.
