| Notes | The original negative envelope is labeled Fred Altendorf. Based on information in the 1910 Davenport city directory and federal census it seems likely this is 36-year-old Richard Altendorf, manager of the Outing Club and a brother of Fred. The group affiliated with his attire has not been determined. |
