[Galveston: Blessing & Co, 1875. Unbound. Fine. Gelatin silver real photo post card measuring 3½" x 5½". Not mailed. A tiny bit of wear at bottom corners where it was little tipped-into a scrapbook or photo album, abut fine. Forward facing image taken from the upper chest upward, a deep and bright vintage print of a formidable older African-American woman with head wrap, a neck scarf, and a gingham dress, peering skeptically at the camera. Inked caption "Aunt Kizzie - Our Cook". Otherwise unidentified, we found closely related images of the same subject amidst a group of photographs of the White Lockhart family of Galveston, Texas. A terrific image.
