1859                Rooms at Light Street, Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania.

J. M. Snyder appeared in one announcement in The Star of the North (Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania) on March 2, 1850.  Melainotypes.  We were shown some beautiful specimens of Melainotypes taken by our friend J. M. Snyder, who is now operating at Light Street, and for richness of tone, life-like and durability, surpass any thing we have as yet seen in the Photographic art.  Those wishing a perfect picture either of themselves or friends, cannot meet with a better opportunity.  Mr. Snyder has been attentively engaged in the business for several years and guarantees general satisfaction.  Give him a trial, and judge for yourselves.

J. M. Snyder is not recorded in other photographic directories.
