What are the best books for original photos of the Borden's? I am looking for photos of young Emma, lizzie and A&A in their younder days. Any suggestions?

The best crime scene pictures are in "Shots In The Dark."
As for portraits, you might need to stick to pre-1923 books, but I'm not sure.
Have you contacted the FRHS?
Are they selling Borden photographs?

I contacted both the FRHS and the B&B and they have yet to reply to my emails.

I have never had the chance to visit the B&B, but I was looking at the pics here and saw a picture that hangs on the wall there showing Andrew, Sarah and a young Emma and Lizzie. I would like to find that young Emma photo.

I guess waiting for a reply might be best for now.
You'll get the best quality the closer to the original you get- but you know that. :smile:

Here's what I got from the B&B today...

Dear Clint,
Sorry, no. We do not have any photos of the family for sale. I have been looking for some myself actually as the ones that were here in the house were taken out before we bought it.
I like your work. Your pictures came out really good!
Good luck with the search.

Lee-ann Wilber, Mgr.

Well, thanks for the info.
Just a paraphrase would be sufficient if you wish to report back here..
Someone to whom you write might not be expecting their reply to be posted publically.

That's OK. It's something we all learn.
I like your enthusiasm! :smile:
