This cabinet card portrait features the portrait of a well dressed older man wearing a well groomed long beard. The reverse of the photograph identifies the gentleman as being Dr. Baker. The photograph was taken at the studio of Taylor & Martin. An ad for Taylor & Martin was found in a Chicago Business Directory (1887). The ad included the information that the studio was formerly called Gentile & Company before Taylor and Martin assumed ownership. This cabinet card is in very good condition. The photograph has great contrast and clarity. There is very minor edge wear. This is an attractive cabinet card that displays well (see scans).
This vintage Cabinet Card is available for purchase at my store, The History Peddler, for $36.00 at auction
