The Puddleby Portraits

Found in the attic of an old barn in North-Central Connecticut, The Puddleby Portraits appear to be candid shots depicting both patients of The Doctor’s, as well as many of their descendants.

These rare and beautiful portraits represent one hundred and thirty years of photographic expertise, beginning in the mid-1840s shortly after Louis Daguerre introduced the first photo daguerreotype, and abruptly ending with the most recent likeness of Mo Woodstock, taken in the Hudson Valley of New York State in 1968.

Nevertheless, the photographer's identity is hotly debated. How could anyone spend one-hundred and thirty years creating such a collection?

Some say they are the work of the reclusive and elusive J. Bumblelily, who is rumored to be of   lunar ancestry.

Others credit The Doctor’s closest friend and confidant, Polly Nesia, along with her daughter, granddaughter, and great granddaughter.

A third possibility, which is a long-shot at best, is the famous Norwegian cat burglar, Tabitha Kettlingur, however it is widely known that before her disappearance in the late nineteen thirties, only one of her nine-lives remained.

The true origin of The Puddleby Portraits remains an intriguing and enduring mystery to this day. It has eluded the most ardent of art collectors the world over and will most likely be lost to antiquity.
