    This picture was evidently taken in the back yard of the Thurow home on Harriet and W. 3rd Streets. The Thurow box factory is clearly visible in the background as it was only a short distance away on the corner of Wilson and W. 3rd Streets. The house was built in 1912 and is still standing on the original lot, but there are now a couple of commercial buildings right behind the house which would block the view of the box factory building.
