This vintage photograph features a pretty young Vietnamese woman wearing boxing gloves and in a boxing stance. This young woman may actually be in her teenage years. I wonder is she is really a boxer or if she was just posing as one. There is an inscription on the reverse of the photograph. I believe the notation is written in French. There is a stamp imprinted on the card revealing that the image was taken at the Minj studio in Saigon. (SOLD)

This cabinet card portrait features an adorable little girl wearing a longish gown. It is entirely possible that this little girl is actually a little boy. During the cabinet card era it is frequently difficult to know if a baby or toddler is a boy or girl. Boys and girls were dressed similarly and also often styled their hair similarly. The photographer of this image is W. R. Miller who operated a gallery in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He also had branch galleries in Fergus Falls (MN), Ashland (WI), and St. Cloud (MN). This cabinet card has gold bevelled edges and is in very good condition (see scans).

These vintage real photo postcards feature Lillian Greuze (1890-1950), a French model, and actress of the stage and screen. She was a protege of Sarah Bernhardt. She performed at New York’s French Theatre. Her debut in New York was in 1915. Greuze was one of many French performers recruited to perform at the French Theatre. When she performed there in “Mademoiselle Josette Ma Femme” (1915), one reviewer praised her playful acting quality, and cited her “gaminerie”. My vocabulary does not include the word “gaminerie” so I looked up it’s meaning. According to Wikipedia, “gaminerie” is defined as “a slim, elegant young woman who is, or is perceived to, mischievous, teasing or sexually appealing”. Greuze also had a film career. She appeared in “The Recoil” (1917). The IMDb reports that she appeared in nine films between 1910 and 1935. Most of her roles were in European films. Greuze was an active philanthropist. While on a cruise in 1915, she agreed to kiss a man who had offered to donate two hundred dollars to a charity for orphans she was soliciting for. During World War I, Greuze was a volunteer with the Red Cross at the French front (1917). During the war, she also worked as a nurse at a hospital in Neuilly, France. –
–The photographer of this portrait of Miss Greuze, seen in Postcard 1, is celebrated theatrical photographer, Leopold Reutlinger of Paris. The card was published by Societe Industrielle de Photograpie (SIP) of Rueil, France, as part of a series (no 2080). (SOLD)
–Postcard 2 features a photograph of Miss Greuze from the same series as Postcard 1. This image is more revealing and risque because of Greuze’s low cut gown. The photograph, like Postcard 1, was shot by Leopold Reutlinger and published by SIP. The two postcards share the same number in a series (no 2080). This postcard has two 1912 french postmarks. (SOLD)
–Postcard 3 finds Lillian Greuze playing Diablo. She is beautifully dressed in a pink checkered dress and a hat covered with pink flowers. It is difficult to imagine her playing the game in her fancy clothes. In the top left hand corner of this postcard is the word “Gymnase”. This word probably refers to Théâtre du Gymnase Marie-Bell in Paris, formerly Gymnase-Dramatique. The Gymnase is a historic theatre. This postcard was published by Reutlinger of Paris and is part of a series (no.2275). The postmark indicates that the card was mailed in 1908. The postcard has a French stamp on it’s front side. This lovely postcard is in very good condition (see scans). Below, is an interesting YouTube video for those unfamiliar with “Diabalo”.
The portrait seen on Postcard 4 was taken by celebrated theatrical photographer, Leopold Reutlinger of Paris. The card was published by Societe Industrielle de Photograpie (SIP) of Rueil, France, as part of a series (no 2080). This postcard was postmarked in 1909. (SOLD)

Theater actress Miss Alma Stanley is the subject of this cabinet card portrait by talented photographer Marc Gambier. To view other photographs by Gambier, click on the category “Photographer: Gambier. In this photograph, Miss Stanley is in costume and wearing a military style uniform with sash and sword. She appears to be saluting or staring into the distance and shielding her eyes from a fictional sun. This full body photograph highlights her thin waist. The photograph is a bit risque for its time. The backdrop and the scenery are expertly done. She truly appears to be standing outdoors. Alma Stanley (1853-1931) was a multi-talented English entertainer. She was an actress, dancer, comedienne, and singer. She appeared in such roles as Little Don Caesar de Bazan. A theater magazine reported that Miss Stanley was the daughter of an English army officer who named her Alma in honor of the battle in the Crimea War. The battle of Alma occurred in 1854 and Alma Stanley was born in 1853 so the story of how she received her name likely falls under the realm of “public relations”. She made her first stage appearance in Milan in 1872 and her first English appearance in the following year. Her New York debut occurred in 1880. She performed with D’Oyly Carte Opera Company as well as with Tony Pastor’s Broadway Theater. Alma Stanley died in a London jail cell. She was being held on a charge of drunkenness when she died of “natural causes”. At the time of her incarceration, her jailers did not know her identity. SOLD
A pretty young lady poses for her portrait at the studio of A. Deutsch in Vienna, Austria. The woman is beautifully dressed. Perhaps she is wearing a wedding gown. Her fancy dress indicates that she probably comes from an affluent family. She is holding a bouquet of flowers in one hand and white gloves in the other hand. She is wearing a bracelet on each wrist. She appears to be in her teenage years or slightly older. The reverse of this cabinet card has pretty and unusual advertising for the Deutsch studio. This portrait cabinet card has excellent clarity and is in very good condition (see scans).
