WELL DRESSED GENTLEMAN : EDMORE, MICHIGAN : CABINET CARD

This cabinet card portrait features a lean well dressed gentleman posing next to wooden fence post. The gent is wearing a corsage, bow tie, and three piece suit. He is posing at the studio of A. E. Boardman, located in Edmore, Michigan. Alfred E Boardman had a difficult time settling down as a photographer. Between the years 1894 and 1924, he operated many studios in various places and during various times. In Michigan, he had studios in Manton, Cadillac, Lake City, Central Lake, Shepherd, Royal Oak and Howell. Next stop was Massachusetts where he operated a studio in Natick. Alfred was born in New York in 1870. He married Rosa, who was Swiss, in about 1893. They had no children. When Alfred owned several galleries simultaneously, Rosa operated some of the galleries on her own. At some time before 1920, the couple appears to have divorced and Alfred remarried. This cabinet card photograph is in very good condition (see scans).
