Photo Number 886

This is a Cabinet Card from the Antique Shop in Detroit Lakes Minnesota.  It may go with yesterdays Cabinet Card.

Cabinet Card MB Magt Walkerville Mont Property of John Anderson Missoula Mont DL Antiques

The photographer is Calfee and Marsh of Missoula, Montana.   This is a beautiful cabinet card with a horse shoe and lots of floral embellishment.  This is most likely a Cabinet Card from the 1890’s…she looks young to me..perhaps sixteen?

  1. Hi Connie! What an unusual (but quite lovely) floral/branch border embellishment on the photograph. I haven't seen one quite like it before. I agree that she looks quite young. Late teens, maybe early twenties.

    Do you suppose Magt is the actual surname or an abbreviation?
