    John Quist
    Al Carlson's oldest brother (probably a half-brother). Probably taken in the 1930s when John was in his 70s.

    This is a small photo that was included with Al's pictures. It has printed on its front "Novelty Studio, 522 Tower Ave." Since Al kept it, it must be of someone in the family. From appearance, it could be a younger John Quist.
    Oscar Carlson, 70, and John Quist, 76
    In probably Id's handwriting on the back: "Was in Cannada 24th of Aug 1939 with John and Oscar." That must be Oscar on the left.

    John Quist "My Happy Home"
    This is a postcard made in Canada. The only writing is Al's and he simply wrote "John."
    John Quist in Canada
    This is a postcard although it does not say that it was made in Canada. This appears to be the area where John lived at one time. There is no suggestion that he is in the picture. There is just one word written on it and it was not written by Al. The word appears to be "Basji" or "Baji."
    John Quist
    Al's oldest brother. Probably taken in the late 1930s or early 1940s.
