Photo courtesy of David J. Whitcomb. A lawyer looking for a new office stumbled upon a trove of historic photographs when he discovered a secret attic in the three-story building he bought last December in Geneva, New York. Among the finds in the hidden trove was a rare portrait of suffragist Susan B. Anthony. David J. Whitcomb, 43, was changing a light bulb on the building’s third floor when he realized the ceiling looked strange. That was because it was a drop ceiling, installed decades ago to convert the space into an apartment unit. Whitcomb spotted an access panel, climbed up on a stack of chairs, and peered inside with a flashlight.
