This is a picture of my Granfather Alfonzo E. Carrillo in El Paso , TEX. 1926. I liked this picture because of the color, street lights, windows and how people got dressed up to leave their houses. seemed like a classy time.
nice photo..
I really like these early hand tinted photographs.
Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Scott and blevinstreasures . I didn't know they could put color in pictures like this so long ago.
It is not a "color photograph"-- it is a tinted black and white photograph.
Tinting has been done on photographs for almost as long as photographs have been around. Many daguerreotype, ambrotypes and tintypes contain hand tinted features.
Your grandfather appear to be a great dresser.You had a handsome grandfather.
