I haven't suddenly gone crazy for the carte de visite. It's just that, in sorting through some old boxes, I found a cache of them and almost all of them are from my early days of collecting from when I was living in Pennsylvania, and when I first started collecting I put too much emphasis on age. I liked this one because of the Masonic symbols on the back of the card.
The subject looks unenthusiastic, to the point that it's actually sort of humorous.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine anyone being more stiff than this fella and still have a pulse. Quite a dandy.
