The photographer's imprint appears on the front and back of the card. This undated photograph is believed to have been taken ca. 1892-1901 when George Marr had his studio in Strathroy. "The Ontario Photographers List (1851-1900)" and "The Ontario Photographers List Volume II (1901-1925)" by Glen C. Phillips, list George Marr as a photographer in Dresden 1883-1891, Strathroy 1892-1901 and Kitchener 1901-1920.
The card has been cut unevenly down the left side and is water stained.
The map shows Front Street in Strathroy.
