Won on Ebay from Illinois. The back paper is a torn away for the most part but at the bottom it says "Kanka ___________ ois" Which I assume to be Kankakee, Illinois. The photographer is obviously W.L. Nichols. The photo itself is a gem in a very tiny brass frame. The printed card as opposed to embossed indicates 1863 or before. This seems to be a memorial card. |
