I am trying to identify a photo. It shows a man in front of a Jewelry store. There are printed ads on the glass that show the name South Bend and a display on the street that is for South Bend Watch Co., South Bend, Indianna. My grandfather Mordie Lee Woods may be the man in the photo. In his early years he worked ina jewelry store in Olathe, KS. and then later in Newton, KS. He eventually became a Optometrist and practiced in Newton, KS. The image appears to be ca. 1900-1930. The name on the store front is Bangs & Woods. The "Bangs" is tenative as it is in shadow and in a script face - so it's hard to read. Does anyone connect to this image?
