Banner Lady Cabinet Photo Photographer Shoes Newspaper Bath, NY York
Item History & Price
Some of the businesses I've been able to identify: Perine & Davison, dry goods; A. Rich, men's clothier; Steuben Courier, newspaper; Wylie's, bookstore/stationer; John Coumbe, photographer.
Some of the interesting items the ladies have incorporated into their co...stumes: tartan neckties or fabric samples, purses, belt made from spools of thread, strings of popcorn and (possibly) nuts, hat (possibly) made from popcorn, leather toddler boots, belt made of button hooks, dental plate used as collar pin, Steuben Courier hat, letters on dress made from newspapers, cabinet photos hanging from dress, along with the photographer's name as sash, makeup brushes in hair, grapes at the hem of woman's white dress (possibly) representing the Steuben County Vineyard Association, (possibly) Standsbury & Leavenworth sewing machine store sash.
Interesting observation: the man in the group, sitting on the floor with his legs crossed, may be the photographer, John Coumbe, making this a self-portrait; this seems to have been taken at a photographer's studio, as evidenced by painted backdrop and studio props, i.e., the baby carriage and dolls.
The photo measures approx 9.5” Wide X 6.25” Tall.
Buyer pays 10.00 S&H.
