As a keepsake from a godson Jānis Berniks 2 1/2 years old. Feb. 16, 1932.
Photographed in Riga
BiransG__.JPG (4927 bytes) Grieta Birans Only the name written on the backside. It seems that the photograph photographed the women just for studying. I do not think she could pay for the photos.
BitensA__.jpg (4622 bytes) Alfreds Bitens Divi gadi piemiņas dienā Ilukstes apriņķi R.P. 10. martā 1924.g.
The inscription was made in remembrance of two years of R.P. Unfortunately, I do not know what is R.P. The name of the person was inscripted later on the front side of the picture.
Bokta__.JPG (5278 bytes) Bokta To the mate Mārtiņš. June 5, 1939 Ludza.
Photographed in Ludza.
Borman__.JPG (4516 bytes) P. Bormans As a keepsake to comrade Voldemārs Danielsons, Riga Apr. 28, 1920. The text is written in Russian.
Photographed in Valmiera.  The family name could also be deciphered as Bermans.
Boza__.JPG (5408 bytes) Boža (Bože?) To Pēteris Kalniņš. Valmiera Nov. 25, 1904. In Latvian: no Wezā Boschas dēla.
BrantsK__.JPG (4993 bytes) K.Brants To Arnolds. Sept. 30, 1936. Photographed in Daugavpils. The rank of K.Brants was corporal.
BremmanisJ__.JPG (4824 bytes) J.Bremmanis (Bremanis) Par peemiņu no Swaschtschenkowas beedra. J.Bremmanis. Samara. 2 Nov. 1917. Realists.
As a keepsake from the companion in Zvaščenkova. I do not know what was Zvaščenkova in Samara city. The clothing of J.Bremmanis is rather strange. He signed as a realist - student of a realschool, but they wore different uniforms, I guess.
BroksS__.JPG (4507 bytes) A.Broks The inscription made later says that Gusts Broks died 30 years old. I think Gusts should be considered as a nickname for Augusts. Photographed in St. Petersbourg before the WW1.
BruninsT__.jpg (6314 bytes) T.Brūniņš Inscription made on May 26, 1930: Mīļam melnajam brālim can be understood as the photograph was presented to the dear black brother. Why black? As Arno Liepiņš explained in an email, the clue is the student cap. Such caps were weared by members of student corporations and some time was needed still the cap and the membership was granted to a newcomer. These members-to-be could call themselves black brothers. Thanks to Arno! Arno also has some additional information about Brūniņš families..
BuikaA__.jpg (4874 bytes) Arv. Burka Alfredam. Arv. Burka. Lejasciemā. Priedniekos.
To Alfreds from Arvids Burka. He had the rank of corporal. In this case Arno Liepiņš also has sent additional information about Burka family which he has investigated. He thinks that the photograph was presented to Alfreds Burka who was born June 26, 1906 and lived in Jaunpriednieki farm.
