A MAN AND HIS BEAUTIFUL LABRADOR RETRIEVER
This cabinet card is a great image of a man and his dog. The image of the dog, probably a labrador retriever, has great clarity. The photographer or the location of the studio is unknown. Perhaps the man’s hat and attire can provide a clue to location for someone more knowledgeable than me about such things.

A WOMAN WITH SERIOUS HAIR IN VERMONT
The woman pictured in this Cabinet Card has unusually long hair. Her hairstyle is quite unique and I bet she had to get up very early in the morning to groom herself for the day. The photographer of this image is N. H. Chapman of Cambridge, Vermont.
SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR SOLDIERS

CHILD BRIDE AND CHILD GROOM IN NEW YORK
What an interesting image! The subjects of this Cabinet Card photograph appear to be a young girl and boy dressed as bride and groom. Another possibility is that this may be a photograph of two midgets, perhaps from a traveling show. My guess is that judging by their appearance, these are children and probably siblings as they seem to show a family resemblance to each other. What do you think? The photographer is F Donahue of Hornellsville, New York. Hornellsville is in Steuben County, New York and is near the Pennsylvania border. Check out the comments left concerning this cabinet card.
