Cabinet Card, January 1900

Post by MarkELynch »

Happy New Year!

Many years ago I bought this card from a fellow collector. Recently I asked Chuck A. to perform some magic with his colorizing software. The edited photograph makes some parts more obvious such as the early telephone and the calendar. I suspect the well-dressed man was fairly wealthy to be able to afford to own an Edison Concert machine and a Suitcase Home and also to have a telephone. Perhaps he was the town doctor or a successful merchant.

Enjoy!

And here it is after AI corrects blurred parts of the image, and screws up the writing on both Edison boxes!!
