This original vintage photograph features a darling child sitting in an iron chair and wearing a knitted winter outfit. The fuzzy pants and sweater are accompanied by a matching beanie hat The child is displaying a tight lipped smile which promotes an impish impression. The photographer and the locale of his/her photo studio is unknown. The photograph is on thinner photo paper stock than that used for cabinet cards or cdvs. The photograph measures about 6″ x 2 3/4″ and is in excellent condition. Glue remnants on the reverse of the image indicate that the photograph is a former resident of a photo album (see scans). (SOLD)
This image is an exceptionally beautiful cabinet card portrait of a pretty mother and her adorable young son. Mom is very well dressed and wearing a necklace, ring, and earrings. She appears confident as she stares at the camera. Her son, standing on a chair, has his arms draped around his mother’s shoulders. He is wearing a nautical type outfit. There is a book on a table in the background. An inscription on the reverse of the photograph indicates that mom’s name is “Jetty” and her son’s name is “Erich”, or possibly, “Emil”. The inscription is difficult to decipher, so the names I provided are just my best guess. The cabinet card photo was taken at the Strauss studio. Strauss had studios in Vienna (Austria), Brunn (Czechoslovakia), and Budapest (Hungary). It is likely that this photo comes from the studio in Brunn. SOLD
