I've started noticing that a lot of photos which are attributed to Hunt are unlikely to be his work. The File:Wright Building.jpg which is part of the O. V. Hunt Collection at Birmingham Public Library is dated to the 1890s, when Hunt was a teenager. Hudson & Cox name Hunt as the creator of a c. 1890 image of a streetcar at Lone Pine Gap, which is probably an error. Several old photos from the William H. Brantley Collection at the Samford University Library also seem potentially misattributed for date and style reasons. Frances Robb may have it all figured out, but I don't have her book yet. --Dystopos (talk) 15:22, 14 August 2017 (PDT)
