The Brinkmier Studio had branches in Wheeling WV, Moundsville, WV, Sistersville WV, Allegheny PA and Pittsburg PA. Although there is no indication at which studio this portrait was taken, I suspect it was at the Moundsville studio, as I have found an "Erma (Irma) Crow" of the right age living in Moundsville WV.
