Portrait — Mrs. (Dr.) William J. Schlosser, vice-president and director; San Antonio Light, 26 Aug 1923, page 60

The portrait is the embedded newspaper JPEG from the archived export 1923-08-26-san-antonio-light-minnie-menger.pdf (Poppler pdfimages, largest stream on page 1)—not a full-page raster with Newspapers.com chrome. A second inbox save, Wilhelmina_Schlosser.pdf, is the same Newspapers.com page but its PDF embeds only a 744×196 strip for the portrait; we keep Minnie_Menger.pdf / the archive as the source for the gallery image.

The Newspapers.com export is titled “Minnie Menger” in metadata, but the page 60 clip shows Mrs. (Dr.) William J. Schlosser (formerly Mrs. William R. Hoffmann), vice-president and director, Hoffmann-Hayman Coffee Company—a note on San Antonio women and local industry. The same image id is used for our Ice tea for summer ad on this page.
