Car crash. Otto Sellers 1868-1940. Otto Sellers was a commercial and portrait photographer in Muncie, Indiana in the early part of the 20th century. He was born about 1868 in Germany and emigrated to the U.S. as a young man. He moved to Muncie from New Albany and spent ten years working in the local steel mills before becoming a professional photographer. Sellers kept written logs for many of his photographs, taken primarily between 1908 and 1926, with the information arranged by name of buyer, subject, or a related heading. His photographs document everyday life in Muncie from about 1900 in to the 1920s. Courtesy Ball State University digital archives.
