| Four bakers, whose paper hat crowns are missing, work
at ovens while rows of rolls and breads line the front counter.
There is even a wedding cake with a bride and groom on top. The sign
over the bakery reads "P. Boevers Bakery". Most of the items in the
bakery are labeled in English, but one labeled "Zinment", almost
Cinnamon in German (Zimt).
The construction is signed on the bottom: "Carl Wörner
Maker" and "Gemacht bei Hermann Domke Bäkersgeselle" (in old
German script, which translates as "Made at the home of Hermann
Domke, journeyman baker"). It is dated "1907/2" probably meaning
February 1907. Paul Boevers had a bakery in Maywood, IL, a suburb of
Chicago, in the 1910 census. |
