[Cabinet card photograph]: African-American Gentleman. Circa 1885

New York: James U. Stead, Photographer, 1885. Unbound. Near Fine. Gelatin silver photograph. Image size 4" x 5.75" on larger thick card mount. Name of photographers both under the image and on the verso. The mount is a trifle soiled, else near fine. Image of a well-dressed and well-groomed, but sadly unidentified African-American man holding a bowler hat and posed before a photographer's studio backdrop. A pleasing image.
