1860s CDV PHOTO ALBUM NY - PA - ENGLAND - CHICAGO - SAN FRANCISCO - 58 PHOTOS
Item History & Price
We are offering a CDV Photograph Album (CDV's are circa 1860's/possibly early 1870's) containing 58 photos of Men, Women and Children from Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut, a couple are from San Francisco, Chicago and other parts of Illinois. The name "Andora Gilbert" is written in gilt lettering on the album cover. We found a historic record of a person whose name was "Andora Gilbert", born in 1851 who lived in Pennsylvania and had 8 siblings.&nb...sp; Of course, we can't say for sure she is the same Andora Gilbert of our album, although many of the photographs were taken by Pennsylvania photographers.
In one photo there is a little boy with purple-tinted trim on his outfit, and also the floral print of the chair next to him is purple-tinted. His cheeks are tinted pink. In one photo of a little girl, she is wearing a purple-tinted dress (that looks like taffeta), and there is a purple-tinted throw over the table that appears to be velvet. Her cheeks are also tinted pink. Many of the women's cheeks are also tinted pink.
CONDITION: CDV's are in Very Good/Excellent Condition. The Album is in Very Good Condition, sturdy, leather shows some wear. A section of the paper at the bottom of page is missing (See Images).
