Benjamin and Oscar Muro

The image shows the brothers Benjamin Muro (left) and Oscar Muro (right). They are both wearing uniforms. Apart from their names, their identities is unknown. The image was taken in 1942 by the Casasola Photograph Studio. Alfonso Casasola, a member of a famous family of Mexican photographers, came to El Paso in the 1920s after several years in the Mexican consular service. He established the Casasola Studio (also known by its Spanish name, Estudio Casasola) at 511 S. El Paso Street and was active in many civic organizations. He died on February 17, 1948 at the age of 59, but his wife, Emma Flores Casasola, continued the studio for many years. Many El Pasoans went to this studio to take their images.
