Tripp Photography
Title
Tripp Photography
Description
Born in Woodstock, Melvin G. Tripp took over his uncle G. A. Burbank's photography business in 1891. His studio was on the corner of Cass and Main Streets at 204 Main. He took many of the photos in the Woodstock Sentinel 20th Century Edition, December 19, 1901. This photo is scanned from that newspaper. His photos were also featured in Headlight: Sights and Scenes Along the Northwestern Railroad.
This database has many of his photographs.
After his death in 1932, the studio was sold to Bransby Brothers. Unfortunately, the building (one of the last wooden buildings on the Square) burned in 1936 and all his negatives were destroyed. The one story building at 106 Cass is on the site of the fire.
