Cabinet card photo of May Stark Lewis (Mrs. Charles Lewis). May Lewis is holding Dorothy Lewis who I assume is her daughter. Taken by Crowe & Rodgers in Stirling, Scotland about 1890.

Written on the back is May Stark (Mrs. Charles Lewis) Dorothy Lewis age 5 months 1890.

Scratches/marks, spots and heavy soiling and tanning of the front and back.

Apparently, something that looked like a cross was stored on the back of the photo for many years and now there is an outline of a cross. I find that pretty awesome.

Cabinet card  measures about 4 1/8” x 6 1/2”.

The scan/s are what the photo/s look like straight on. The camera photo/s (if any) I took at an angle and I have adjusted the highlights and contrast to better show you what the marks/spots look like. Colors are more like the scanned photo/s AND
*Colors of the scanned photo may vary slightly from the actual photograph as all monitors and screens are calibrated differently. Color is more like the scan then the photos I took.

Scans are ENLARGED to show detail.

Father & Child

Lot of two cabinet cards. Probably taken in Iowa by The Graham Scenic Art Co., owned by C. Ernest Graham and Floyd H. McRae. I’m assuming the man is the father of the child as I do not know for sure.

A  LOT of scratches/marks and scraps (both cards) most of which can only be seen while viewing photo at a certain angle to the light.

Some of the scrapes can be seen straight on (white spots are scrapes).

Backs are plain and in very good condition.

Photos measures about 4 1/4″ x 6 1/2″.
