Photographers: American Colony  Studio , Jerusalem
Photographs bearing this signature were made by a number of highly talented photographers who belonged to the Colony, which was founded in 1881 by the Protestant Spafford family from Chicago. The photographic department was founded about 1898, or  slightly before, by Frederick Vester and Elijah Meyers to record the impending visit of Kaiser Wilhelm II. Over the years, the several photographers, who signed their work “The American Colony,” produced many thousands of images. In 1922 a branch of the American Colony Stores was opened in New York City, making their monumental collection available in America.
