yep Mike is right againI thought it was one of these pictures I have,now that im now taking a closer look at them,maybe there not photos but more like collector card pictures of famous people ill scan a few both sides,ok looked again at these card things,im lost I have no clue what they are
They're called cabinet cards. They were all the rage during the 1870's and 80's mostly. Portraits of the time were often in this style, because they were larger than a standard photograph and a good size to sit on a cabinet.
The cards feature the logo of the photographer on the front (or just the name) and information on the rear advertising his services.
