"A Card. I wish to inform the public, generally, that I have purchased the Photograph Gallery on South Chestnut Street, Seymour, Indiana, known as the "Sunbeam," of C. C Crabb. Having spent five years in these rooms my work all over the country speaks for itself, consequently needs no recommendation. Hoping to see all of my old friends and patrons, and as many new ones as will come, with a guarantee of satisfaction, I am respectfully, WM. BACKE."

Jackson County Banner (Brownstown, Indiana), May 12, 1892, p. 1
"Announcement. I am again in charge of the Sunbeam Photo Gallery, No. 19 South Chestnut St, Seymour, Ind., and solicit your patronage. When you want Photographic work of any kind, I will use the American Aristo paper and process in making all photo work; this is the class of work you can wash like an oil painting, and has a polish like plate glass. I do not call it celluloid, there is no such thing as a celluloid photo. I will not misrepresent mv business. Will attend promptly to all work given me to do, and guarantee clean clear photos to all. No smoky, dingy, spotted or streaked photos made at our Gallery. Patronize a Jackson County Boy and be made happy. Respectfully, C. C. CRABB.
