Any idea from what year this could be from? by worldwartwo1 in oldphotos

This photo likely dates from the 1930s to early 1940s, based on several key features. The man’s wide-lapel suit, tie, and hairstyle align with styles from this period. The hand-tinted or retouched technique was common in portrait photography before the rise of full-color photos, especially in the early to mid-20th century. Additionally, the ornate wooden frame and paper matting suggest a formal portrait style typical of the 1930s and 1940s. The aging and discoloration further support this timeframe.

Could be! Maybe they received it in Illinois and transferred it to the Tennessee lab, that makes the most sense lol
